Recycling

My project is about my experience on recycling. I have been recycling for a long time now and today I have noticed that there is a lot of garbage and waste all on the floor, especially that there are little animals that can die with all the plastic being thrown on the floor. These animals can be snails, caterpillars, and plenty of more animals that we should take care of. We should take care if the environment around us and not fill it with garbage like we are doing.

It’s amazing how many so-called educated people think that if something is out of their home then it’s ok to leave it lying around dirtying the area. Nowadays it is so easy to get rid of our trash – simply by making a phone call and the bulky refuse come to collect it for free.

Trapped animals

In the first picture you can see a hedgehog that got stuck in a glass jar. It won’t be able to move to find food. In the second picture, the turtle is caught in a plastic bag. Animals get confused and eat plastic because they think it is food. They also get trapped in the litter and get hurt or even die. All living things should be able to live free from pollution and harm from plastic to avoid loss of biodiversity. Litter is causing a long term harm to the environment. Let’s work altogether to make the Earth a healthier and cleaner place for every creature.
