Recycling

| Spanish recycling containers opposite our school |
The majority of the children in our school live in the country. So, they use organic materials to make the farm animal's food. There are containers for the organic materials, too.
In Spain, if you recycle plastic and packing, there are many containers to put them in. These containers are yellow.
The paper and the cardboard go in the blue containers or are burned.
Green containers are for glass. But if you haven´t got one of these containers near, you can reuse the glass.
