LET’S SAVE THE LIFE ON OUR PLANET  

               The history of the Earth

the earth, together with other solar system planets, started to form about

4.6 milliards of years ago                                                             

                                                                              

At that time, the earth was an inflamed ball turning on itself without any evidence of the life we know today

Little by little the land surface
became cold and
changed into a rocky crust

A burning material, called magma,
remained in the deepness of the earth

A huge pressure from the inner part of the planet pulled out and created the volcanoes from which an enormous quantity of gases and vapours came out forming the atmosphere

These vapours started condensing and creating huge clouds

The clouds originated  the rains that, throughout the years,
filled the large valleys creating the oceans and the seas

In the oceans and seas, about 3,5 milliards of years ago, the first forms of life were born (protocells)
which originated animal and vegetable life on our planet

Since then, life was born on our planet, expressing itself in a variety of forms and shapes.
Through the millenniums, life changed and evolved into more complex
types of life: the man

WASTE

                                       WASTE  PROBLEMS

  Waste around the world is a big problem for our planet.

Waste is formed of different kind of material:

-Organic

-Plastic 

-Metals

-Paper

-Glass

-Batteries

-Medical waste

This is the worst way to destroy our  environment

                       The island of waste

               

“A world of waste”

Environment policy helps green economy, protects nature and safeguards health and quality of life of people living on the earth.

OUR PROMISE: THE WORLD IN OUR HANDS

THE 3 Rs

Waste is a big problem all over the world

Waste is not only a problem…… it’s also a resource!!!!!

The 3 Rs are  the solution for the waste.

What are the recyclable materials?

                            PAPER  

                               GLASS

                               METALS   

                               PLASTIC

THE SOLUTION IS……

……….THE 3 Rs……..

The Three Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

The concept  of the three Rs was created to help fighting the drastic increase in solid waste production.

Reduce

Let's start with the first R, which is Reduce.

In order to reduce the amount of waste produced, it is essential to focus on the source of the waste: Source reduction is when products are designed, manufactured, packaged, and used in a way that limits the amount or toxicity of waste created. 

The first goal of source reduction is simply to reduce the overall amount of waste that is produced. The second goal is to conserve resources  not using raw and virgin materials, but recycled ones. Aluminium cans are  a good example of source reduction because they are now made by 1/3 less virgin material than they were twenty years ago.

Reducing the amount of overall waste is important because it conserves  natural resources.

  

Reuse

The second most important strategy of the three Rs is to reuse, which is when an item is cleaned and the materials are used again.

  

There are two main ways to which the concept of reusing can be applied to reduce waste :

•       First: when purchasing a new item, you can look for a product that can be used repeatedly instead of a version that is only used once and thrown away

•      Second: reuse is to buy a secondhand item  instead of buying a  new one .

·       Third: the most  common method of reuse is to bring your own reusable shopping bags instead of using plastic or paper bags provided at the store.

Some industries implement the process of reuse by using glass bottles to hold their products and promoting consumers returning them. The company, then, cleans and refills the bottles for sale a lot of times.

  

RECYCLE

In most cities and towns there are recycling bins for plastic, paper and glass.

In some cases the material is recycled and used again as a raw material, such as paper, glass, metals and plastic.

Our food and yard material is transformed into a different product. For example, organic waste can be turned into compost.

We can always reduce the amount of waste we generate by reducing our consumption. There are also many materials we can recycle.
