Earth Day, Every Day


Earth Day is on April 22nd every year.
Earth Day is a day to remember to take
care of our planet, Earth. We cantake
care of our planet by keeping it clean.
We can keep Earth clean by following
the rule of “reduce, reuse, recycle”.

Reducemeans use less. We can reduce our use of resources like water or gasoline.
Reuse means use again, rather than throw things away. We can reuse many things, such as jars, plastic bags,and boxes.
Recycle means to make something new from something old. We can keep Earth clean by recycling materials such as aluminum, paper, and plastic. If we take these materials toa recycling center, they can be used again in a different way.
On Earth Day, we remind ourselves and everyone on Earth that we must do these things. We must do these things everyday, not just on Earth Day. We must all do our part, and we can make a difference.
On April 22nd, remind everyone you know that Earth Day is every day!
