Have you ever heard of waste management? It’s a hierarchy created as a guide for a better, more sustainable life. This guide is based on nothree principles: reduce, reuse and recycle and they can be applied to your daily life without any difficulties. Just check this out: • Reduce – do you ever notice how much you buy at the supermarket? Do you see how much is thrown in the garbage after? Reducing is the first principle to help the planet. You must reduce what you consume and reduce the waste you generate, and these are some ideas how: print on both sides of the paper when doing a task for school; avoid using disposable plastic cups. • Reuse – if you can’t reduce, maybe you can reuse. Many people find new uses for old things, so they don’t have to throw anything away. For example, glass is a very good material that has a very long life span. You can use jam jars to store paper clips. • Recycle – sometimes it’s really difficult to reduce the consumption of something or not easy to reuse a product that’s broken. Then recycling can be the solution. If you can’t recycle something by yourself, you can always help by buying products that are made with recycled materials.qual e o tempo verba predominante nesse texto ?
