Recycling at 最新麻豆视频

We have recently updated our recycling program to promote ownership, reduce contamination and increase effectiveness.

Rationale: It is believed that 90% of waste in schools can be directed away from the landfill with effective recycling and composting practices. Our goal is to teach our community how to be the best stewards of the environment that they can be and teach them how to manage waste.

Why Recycle?

  1. Recycling reduces the amount of waste in landfills.
  2. It preserves our natural resources.
  3. Recycling saves energy and water.
  4. Recycling reduces air pollution and greenhouse gasses.
  5. Recycling helps our forests and oceans which protects animals.

Each classroom has stacking recycling bins to manage their recycling. There are community bins for recycling returnable bottles in the common areas. These are collected each Friday afternoon by the recycling team!
