Some people may hate the extra effort that it takes to sort, save and carry all their recycled materials but it is all worth it. Replace that hate with love in your Valentine-sized heart when you realize all the good that you do when you recycle.

When we choose to recycle, we choose to make a difference to the Earth. It lets us use our precious materials again and again instead of wasting them.

For example, that new pair of tennis shoes you just got - you can use the container to make a box for your Valentines!

Just remember, recycling is very important to the world. So let’s hope that cupid shoots you with a recycling arrow!!
