Dear Mr. Morawski,

Hi, my name is Ryan H. and I am in 6th grade in Mr. Joseph's class. I am contacting you to ask you to put recycle bins in the lunch room. This problem was caused because you took away the recycle bins. This means that most students and some staff will not recycle because of this.

BCS took away their recycle bins and now, most people are throwing things away that could be recycled. I understand that you probably took them away because people were throwing trash in them, but you could have some kind of assembly where you tell people to not throw trash in them.

This problem occurs to me every school day. I have to recycle my yogurt cup at my house. It is kind of a pain, and most people do not do what I do. Schools across the USA probably have the same problem.I think that our school could be a model to other schools. Since school waste is up to 80% recyclable, schools make a huge impact when they recycle. Recycling is also cheaper than trash disposal, so it helps save the environment AND your budget! (lessismore.org) We may be doing something good to the rest of the USA. Plus, we are supposed to be a green school right?

I think that the way to make this work is first, you put out some recycle bins right next to the trash cans. Next, you should have a recycle dumpster as well as a garbage one. Finally, you should have an assembly about it and establish some consequences if they throw trash in the recycle bins or if they throw recycles in the trash.

Please consider putting  recycle bins in the lunch room. If we do, we will set an example and make the world a better place.

Thank You,
Ryan H.
