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.

As for batteries, in Spain people put them in a specific bin. 

Some Spanish people put used oil in an orange container.


Electrical appliances go in a specific container, too.
