The 3 R's Are the Way


Reduce;

Because, let's face it, we've gotten all too big.

The Earth is huge 

but we make a difference,

we're making her sick. 

Reuse;

Because sometimes our trash isn't trash,

but we don't realize,

what we can do with an old box,

or an old colored piece of glass.

Recycle

The things that yourself you can't restore

but sort it, ship it out

and that old can 

could end up back in fridge door.

Save the Planet

Because at this point, she needs it.

We've caused so much destruction,

taken so much away. 

 

Can we please just commit?

These three R's are the way.
