Reuse & Repurpose

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?

Share your ideas for extending the “lives” of the items that we buy and use, and their packaging as well!

Reuse and Repurpose

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? There are plenty of better ways to solve this. An easy way would be to have separate boxes right next to each other with pictures of what can go into them. A second way would be to give recycled items to a local art center, whether that be a school or some place in town. A final thing that can be reused and repurposed are clothes, that could be donating to goodwill, to people in need, and hand-me-downs.

I think this is a great idea! Having something to inspire people to reuse their items could dramatically drop the amount of trash that pollutes the Earth. I also think that giving recycled items to art centers would help cultures everywhere because art is a great way to bring people together. Goodwill and Salvation Army are great places to donate and I think more and more people are starting to know about them which is great!

There is always more we can do but I think that if we can enrich communities while helping the environment, we can really bring down the amount of trash that pollutes the Earth. Other ways include letting schools use recycled objects to build things or having school integrate projects such as building machinery out of recycled materials.
