You may thing that your efforts will not be helpful enough because you're just one person,but you are wrong. If everyone is careful about what they throw away, there will be fewer garbage dumps and the environment will benefit.
We should use the "R theory", which stands for reduce, reuse, recycle and refuse. First reduce means having less garbage then usual by eating snacks like bananas and oranges that are not in packets. Second, possibly to keep thing in. Third, recycle means using old thing to make ones and using certain vegetables to improve the soil in our gardens. Finally, refuse means not using products that are harmful to the environment.
