Show Garbage must be recycled Garbage doesn't go away just because we throw it away. It may go into the dumpsites and IandfiUsor even to a burn plant somewhere-but it's still not gone. And if we don't do something about it, the garbage we buy could bury us. Garbage must be recycled. The average person throws away more than 1.5 pounds of material (garbage) daily-and there are 250 million of us. Farmington Junior High students decided to do their part to help the environment. They held a Recycling Recycl-ing Week, and students saved all their paper for the entire week. The paper was put on display to show how much is wasted when not recycled. Aluminum cans were also gathered and kept throughout the week. The project was organized by student officers and cheerleaders under the direction of Elizabeth Armstrong, Angie Taylor and Kelcie Waters. |
