Conservation: is the preservation, protection, or restoration of the natural environment, natural ecosystems, vegetation, and wildlife.

Recycle: is a process using materials (waste) into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials. Reduce: is the process by using less of the important things we need in our everyday life to keep on living. Reuse: is basically using an item again after it has being used.

The problem that seems to concern me is the fact that people in Antigua and Barbuda think that our surroundings is waste land. Why they always littering and polluting?

I chose to research this specific topic because I saw the need to ensure Antigua and Barbuda doesnt desecrate and become a waste land. It needs to be here for our future. It where we live and where we populate and make memories.

WELL! I went about collecting this information by: First asking my parents if was okay to use things out of the house. Then I asked around in the community and pick up litter off the surface. The observations: This was done on a daily basis using a table Eyes They were transported to the recycling plant by: hand into a truck Also by riding bikes.

My table: PET# 1 HDPE# 2

Peanut butter containers(PBC), Margarine(M) , Salad dressing containers(SDC), Ice-cream(IC), Vegetable oil containers (VC). Breeze(B), Milk jug(MJ), Detergent bottles (DB).

The difference between PET#1 and HDPE#2 is that PET materials commonly has number 1 as its recycling symbol, whereas HDPE number is 2(as its recycling symbols).

I recommend that the citizens and my classmates: Practice the three Rs because they would be helping the world to become a better place them and me. They should be the ones setting the example. My classmates should be the ones ensuring that our school is clean and the air is healthy. Also practice the three Rs because when we recycle, reduce and reuse we helping to our surrounding green and more green. They country/economy would benefit from recycling a healthier Antigua and Barbuda.
