RECYCLING
The Amount of garbage around the world is increasing dramatically. New packing materials, lifestyle changes, and increasing population are some of the reasons. Fortunately, people are starting to worry about garbage and its impact on health and the environment. Children are learning about it at school. Governments are thinking of ways to reduce the amount of reused and recycled materials.

[5] Recycling in Brazil: “Think of tomorrow. Recycle today.” TV campaigns are raising public awareness and promoting environmental education. An example of this is the School Project: many schools are exchanging waste material collected by students for equipment, such as desktop computers.
