Recycling


Recycling is another great way to help the earth. One of the main reasons why it's so good and helpful is that it's really easy so everyone can do it. Also, recycling even just one piece of paper makes a difference. It's a lot better than using the garbage when you can recycle. The recycling symbol is three arrows making a triangle. The reason there are three arrows is that "reduce, reuse & recycle" are pretty much the three steps of recycling. When you recycle you get to reuse things instead of wasting them.

green store


This is my second post about Greenpoint. It is a little bit strange how the word green sort of stands for the ideas, earth, enviorment, helping the earth, and green point actually has alot of green things in it. I already talked a little bit about the Habana Out Post, except there is also a store in Greenpoint that only sells earth friendly things. I have a clock from there that runs completely on water. I know it is only a small clock and that normal clocks don't waist very much energy, except the water clock doesn't use any electricity. I have the orange one.
