Practising the three Rs is one way to help the environment

An essay by Lê Mai Hà Trang





The environment includes natural factors and man-made ones that are closely related to each other. They surround us and affect our life, production, existence and development of people and nature. Because of these reasons, you should join me in protecting the environment. Practising the three Rs is one way to help the environment.

The three Rs are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. This rule is part of the waste hierarchy, a process used to protect the environment and conserve resources through a priority approach. Its aim is to get the most practical benefits from products and to generate the minimum amount of waste.

The three Rs – reduce, reuse and recycle -- all help decrease the amount of waste we throw away. It helps conserve natural resources, landfill space and energy. Plus, the three Rs save land and money that communities must use to dispose of waste in landfills

There are many ways to help the environment. Not only big behaviors are important, but also small behaviors help, too. Accordingly, practising the three Rs is the most important way to save the environment.

Make Your Bed and Change the World!

I. Read the following lesson of Admiral William McRaven: Do you want to change your life and change the world to make it a better place? William McRaven is an admiral in the United States Navy and he has some good ideas about how to do this. He says don’t be afraid to try new things that are difficult. Also, he says never give up, never quit when something is difficult. Many people agree that these are very good ideas.  But, Admiral McRaven also has another idea. His idea is very different. He says that you must make your bed every morning to change the world. He gives two reasons for this. First, after you make your bed you will want to do more work, and then more work … and then more work. This is important because you must do lots of work when you want to change the world. Second, sometimes work or school is not easy and you will feel bad – but when you come home and see a beautiful bed, you will feel happy.
