Hello there. As the god of nature i feel that the idea of recycling can be quite useful to keep nature a safe and clean place to be able to admire the gift of the god's when camping or hiking. But i find that being alerted to what can and cannot be recycled can help you know and make a habit of recycling the right materials subconciously so you end up starting your journey on helping the planet without even knowing it.
examples of things that can be recycled... examples of things that can't be recycled...
-glass -containers that have been soiled with food
-steel (unless cleaned)
-aluminum cans -Drinks cartons i.e. orange juice
-paper -food wrappers
-cardboard boxes -food
-plactic (except plastic no. 6) -etc...
-etc...
These are just a few of the main things that we should be aware of as to what can and can not be recycled. Centennial Academy is a school that tries to apply recycling and composting into their everyday life while teaching their students the various skills needed in life. Their use of a container for specifically keeping bottles and cans apart from the rest of the plastic containers and food remains is quite a good idea. they even keep a recycling bin in each classroom and empty it twice a day. Once on monday and once on thursday. The plastic, paper and various other materials are then emptied from the recycling bin into a bigger one. The food remains are even deposited into a composting bin. This school has most definetley taken a step in the right direction and should serve as an example to all other schools who are considering to taking up the process of recycling.
