Speech on “Reuse, Reduce and Recycle”

Good morning, respected Principal, teachers and my dear friends!

As a member of the Green Peace Campaign of the school, I, Akash stands here to urge all of you to reuse, reduce and recycle whatever you can.

The three R’s—reduce, reuse and recycle help to cut down the amount of waste we throw away. They conserve natural resources, landfill space and energy. The best way to manage waste is to not produce it. Avoid over-packaged goods, especially ones packed with several materials such as foil paper and plastic which are difficult to recycle, though you pay more for the package. Use cloth napkins instead of paper napkins. Use a dish cloth instead of paper towels. Use a ceramic coffee mug instead of paper cups. Reuse grocery bags or bring your own cloth bags to the store. Do not take a bag from the store unless you need one. Buy products made from recycled material. Look for the recycling symbol or ask store managers or salesmen. The recycling symbol means either the product is made of recycled material, or the item can be recycled. Use recycled paper for letterheads, copier paper, and newsletters.

I urge you to follow these tips and do your bit in saving mother earth.

Thank you.
