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 and it started about a year ago. 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 solution to this problem 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.
