It's very tempting to throw things away or even drop them in a recycling bin when we are done with them. Is there a better way?

Recycling is Good
Recycling of paper, metals, and glass help the environment. Recycling paper helps reduce the amount of trees we chop down everyday. Recycling is good because the earth's resources are limited and it is important that we conserve as much as possible. One way to do this is to recycle waste products.
Recycling is also great because it helps less trash get into the ocean and harm animals. Everyone likes the ocean, but people will like it less if there is trash floating around. So a tip for everyone is to please recycle and put trash in the correct bins. Also, the recycling bins usually have a picture of what can go into them, which does help.
Not only should we recycle, but we should purchase recycled goods instead of new products. We can buy recycled utensils, water bottles, paper, containers, and more. This also helps preserve forests and resources.
