THREE R'S OF THE ENVIRONMENT
Lesson 27 - Three R's of the Environment
Reduce - To use fewer things
Reducing the amount of waste you produce is the best way
to help the environment.
• Buy products that don't
have too much packaging • Use less paper
Carpool with friends to reduce pollution or take the
bus or ride a bike • Save energy by turning off
lights that you are not using • Follows the Jain principle of non-possessiveness
Reuse - To fully make use of things
Instead of throwing things away, try to find ways to use them again! • Take lunch in plastic containers
instead of plastic bags • Use old containers to make art
projects • Donate clothes instead of throwing them away.
