Sustainability Magazines

 

Sustainability-Don't Throw It Away, Make Something! -Third Grade

Sustainability Meeting the needs of people now without compromising the ability of people to meet their needs in the future.

Every time you throw something away it gets sent to a landfill. More and more rubbish is piled on top until it is too big and the landfill has to be closed. 

The great thing is that many things can be reused and recycled. 


Lets watch what this might look like for you.

You could use lots of different colors, or try to stay in the same color family, like all greens or all blues.
