Albion Elementary Earth Eagles By Andrea Nauden and Riley Seilstad

We are the Earth Eagles from 3rd Grade in Mrs. Perry’s class. Our job is to recycle and save the world. When you recycle, you pick up paper, plastic, and all sorts of trash. You put all the trash into a garbage can and paper you put in a recycling bin. They take the garbage and bury it, and it pollutes the earth but if we recycle, they take it to a place where they turn something into something else! For example, used paper is made into fresh paper we can use. Even if you don’t have a recycling program at school, you still can do it at home – you can make a clubhouse out of cardboard boxes. You can also wrap presents with newspaper and reuse the backs of used paper to draw and write on. Students were asked why recycling paper is important… Recycling paper is important because we save thousands and hundreds of trees. First, if we do not recycle, people will cut down more trees then we will not have rainforests for the environment. Next, I love animals, so for that the animals need trees. Last, recycling is very fun. You could try it some day. By Kendall Eibl Recycling paper is important because if we didn’t, a lot of trees would be cut down right now. The people who cut down trees hurt our environment. It would be better if we recycle than cut down trees, right? So you see that is why recycling is so important. By Destini Hurlbert Recycling is important to all of us because if we did not recycle, then there would not be any more trees. And we love the trees, don’t we, because without trees then the poor deer would have no place to live. That is why our job is recycling. By Cody Grabowski Recycling paper is important. I like recycling because I save the earth. You can save a million pounds of paper if you recycle. If you recycle a lot, it feels like an everyday thing. So you see that’s why it’s so important to recycle. By Stephen Zayac Thank you for reading our suggestions about recycling!
