Are you doing everything you can to help protect the environment?
Thanks for Visiting the Go Green Kids Page!
Grown ups are not the only ones who can do something to help keep the Earth alive and green. Kids play a very important part in making sure that the the world will continue to be full of life and uncontaminated for future generations to come.
DID YOU KNOW that throwing away things that could have actually been recycled wastes energy, water and natural resources that could have been saved by recycling?
Here are Some Facts:
Here is what is saved for each and every ton of paper that is recycled: 7,000 gallons of water is saved; 380 gallons of oil and enough electricity to run power in an average sized house for 6 months is saved.
Did you know that you can run a TV for 6 hours on the same amount of electricity that is saved by taking and recycling just one aluminum can?
Also, just by recycling one glass bottle, you can save enough electricity to light up a 100-watt bulb for 4 hours.
So remember kids, the more stuff we throw away, the more space we use up in the landfills. So, when a landfill becomes full, the taxpayers then have to build a new one. The solution is, that the less we throw away, the longer our landfills will last and won't fill up so fast. Saving taxpayer's money by extending the life of our landfills is an important benefit to our communities as well. So let's ALL do our part to save our planet!
