A) Though putting plastic, glass, and other recyclable materials in a recycling bin is more helpful than putting it into the trash, recycling never does get rid of the waste entirely! SO to help the earth benefit, and to help yourself, try using old trash and recyclables (To a healthy and practical degree) to create costless items! Look up online for many choices!! BUT HERE -> 

   For example : Toys

   -Any parent could make a club house or small desk out of a large cardboard box! Just grab some scissors and colors and let your kid explore with the decoration!! 

   -Instead of having to go to a store to buy decorations for a bedroom, use cardboard to cut out and color cool palm trees, a sun, butterflies, any design you want! 

   -To replace costly, cheap plastic food for a child's kitchen wash out already used condiment bottles, seasoning containers, yogurt bottles, egg trays, milk cartons, whatever suits you! The kitchen will seem more realistic anyway :) 

    -Make cars out of bottles, boxes, and buttons for wheels 

       -Make a robot out of any material!  

       -Sock or paper or cloth puppets! With a box puppet theatre

   For example: Little Objects

  -Make a neckless/bracelet holder out of a tennis racket, an old statue, old tea cups, wire, etc 

  -Make a jeweler box out of an old box, a shoe box, an egg carton, etc 

   -Make a picture frame out of a piece of cardboard and newspaper (Or book pages) 

    -Flower pots can be made from used, decorated bottles 

 - Make a shovel out of the end of a milk carton

   -make a book mark out of paper scraps

   -Use used milk cartons, water bottles, juice bottles, for reusable bottles to take with you

   -Sew jean pockets together to make a bag 

   -Sew used juice and candy wrappers to make a wallet or bag

  Sure these things can take a bit of time, but during that time you and maybe someone else is helping the environment along with taking a chill pill and stimulating the creativity in your brain. Just because you are young or old, doesn't mean you cannot make crafts :D They can be fun, a bonding event, a hobby! 

    B) Use less!! :D Conserve. I know it is extremely hard, especially in today's society. But it is possible. Use the lights and water as little as possible (Meaning: Don't forget to turn it off, don't use them if you don't need them.) Carpool with friends, take a bike ride, walk, etc. I am sure you have heard of all of these things before but let me tell them to you again so you will actually do them!! :D Please. 

   C) THROW AWAY YOUR TRASH! It's not that hard :) Just take a step towards the trash can and throw it away. please. For the better of society, of the environment, for yourself, for the future, etc. For the entire world!

   And lastly for part 1,

    D) Here's a challenge!!!!! For those of you like me who feel particularly devoted to help the environment: Pick up any trash you see laying around and throw it away :D If you do not happen to have a bag with you to put it in, have the courage to keep it with you until you can properly throw it away. If you do have a bag, awesome! Just pick up some trash, you do not have to do all of it, and throw it away. 

   Why? Why should you do any of this stuff? Because 1) you will feel good about yourself, 2) the earth will thank you, 3) by making one simple change to turn off the light or to throw away a stray piece of trash you could just save another day of electricity or save the life of an animal. The trash makes a difference to the animal. 4) The future depends on you. 5) Your grandkids, possibly kids, possibly yourself and friends and family depend on it.
