Here’s the science:
Many animals and plants are threatened by human actions, such as deforestation, hunting, pollution, climate change and disease. Acting now can protect them and help make sure they don’t disappear forever. Humans create a lot of waste! Reduce, reuse, and recycle – these are ways we can help towards a sustainable future. Reducing waste, reusing items, and recycling materials lessens the strain on natural resources, reduces pollution, and combats climate change.
