  5. The Brainstorm(How can we get NZers to reduce, reuse and recycle?) Try to buy things that are packaged in recyclable materials. Plan meals and buy only what you need. Make it easier for companies to use type 1 and 2 plastics. Ways to encourage reducing, reusing and recycling. Use boxes instead of plastic bags when you can. Pay people for their recyclable items. Encourage people to use cloth nappies more often. Buy good quality toys that won’t easily break. Ask city councils to start recycling more kinds of plastics Give people “No Junk Mail” stickers for their mailboxes. Use junk mail for paper crafts. Compost kitchen scraps.

  6. The Brick Wall(What can our class do to help?) Instead of throwing our rubbish away, we should try to: • reduce the amount of rubbish we make, • reuse things whenever we can, • recycle where we can. As a class we can: • Have one rubbish bin for unrecyclable things, one for things we can recycle, like 1 and 2 plastics, and another bin for paper rubbish. • Make a class worm farm for our lunch food scraps. • Encourage the class to use paper lunch wrap which can be recycled instead of plastic wrap. • Keep paper which is used on only one side for artwork.
