Nowadays, the environment is a big problem in many countries. So we have to find the best way to reduce the amount of garbage. We can recycle some materials instead of putting them into garbage. The empty bottles or drink cans can be reused. Don’t throw paper and glass everywhere because they can be recycled. We can make some vegetable matters into compost and fertilize for our field. Do so we can protect the environment and save natural resources.
