SLWRP at THS

I have created this blog as part of the SLWRP which is going on at Tennyson. My purpose is to educate the Tennyson community about waste reduction and motivate them to recycle. We have placed recycling bins around the campus so that the students can recycle. SLWRP is a service learning waste reduction program education people about the 4R's.

The 4R's are: reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. Reduce is not buying things that are unnecessary and will end up in the garbage in the end. Also using less paper inside the classrooms. Reuse is reusing items instead of throwing them away. Recycling is putting items like paper, plastic, and cardboard in recycling bins. Rot is using items like yard trimmings to make compost that can be used as a fertilizer for our farm plants. Tennyson students need to get involved because it's important to care for the Earth before it's too late.
