Everybody can do something to help protect the planet.
At home you can recycle things made of paper,plastic,metal or glass,such as cans and bottles.You can use kitchen waste, such as fruit or vegetable peelings, to make fertilizer for the garden.This means that less rubbish is taken away and buried underground.It also means that fewer natural resources are used to make new things.When cans are recycled, people can use the metal to make cars and computers. New books can be printed on recycled paper.
You can save electricity by switching off lights other things when you are not using them. If everybody dose this, there will be no need to build any more power stations.
