why it's important:

Our school uses hundreds of pounds of recyclable materials that unfortunately end up in a landfill.

the plan of action:

The goal of our group is to recycle bottles, cans, paper, and even ink cartridges and computers. We are also trying to get our school to make the switch to biodegradeable plates, napkins, and untensils, as well as recycled paper. We believe that our club makes a positive image for our school and community that will inspire others to follow our lead.
