Yesterday at the American Corner, upper basic school students were invited to a creative recycling event to to contribute our quota to protecting the environment by recycling plastic spoons, sticks, CDs, gift bags, and papers to create beautiful pieces. Recycling is beautiful♻️. You must not throw away all of your waste. Some items can still be reused to create wonderful artefacts. Let's protect our environment through recycling.
Let's recycle to make a difference!
Majority of waste generated each year ends up in the landfills or open dumpsites. These do not only have a bad impact on our environment but also degrade the beauty of cities and towns. By recycling already used items in our homes and surrounding environment, we can play a small but huge part in protecting the environment and regaining the glory of our cities.
Join us at the American Corner this Saturday as we recycle commonly disposed off items to contribute our quota to protecting the environment.
