  4. Yeah, I think Yavanna's reasons are right. And we should use less plastic bags when we buy stuff. Use the ones you can use over and over and bring them from home!

    1. Yes Matina, recycling is good but it is even better things do not need to go to recycling centre. In fact, not every recyclable thing are lucky enough to be sent to recycling. Most of them end up in the landfill.
