Now say what things can be reduced, reused, recycled.

Pupils: (topic)

Teacher: Will you see a video trek on that point?

“Reuse, reduce, recycled”

While watching it, make up the additional list of things which can be recyclable.

Then complete your list with some more things not mentioned above.

Let us see how well you’ve done it?

Teacher: Do we recycle these things? Why not?

Pupils: The problem is that we don’t sort these things out when we throw them away as we don’t have special containers for different kind of trash. Besides, we don’t know where we could bring them to be recycled or re-used. So, Russian people are not enough ecology-friendly and educated for now. And also people in Russia don’t care about such a problem very much.
