Recycling Center

Good afternoon Science English students! In this class we will begin designing and extend our design work for the recycling center. There are many types of recycling centers; some are multiple, containing three or four stages, some are very simple and just house one building and one machin, and others are incredibly complex and contain many stages.

The first thing you need to think about if you haven't yet is what you want to recycle. Please think about the end product here. You should decide whether you want to make a brand new product from a used on (with other parts), or if you want to use the old parts or materials on which to base a new idea, item, or product.

Please draw a picture of it along with a location map. Be detailed with your stages so the reader can understand what you are trying to convey. Please write an explanation that is simple, yet instructive in English. If we finish in class and have time, we will present in smaller groups and perhaps two large groups. If we have no time, we will finish and present in the following week.

Please think that this product might be invented and used some day! I'm looking forward to your designs!

More on Recycling

Recycling is normal and useful. I think recycling is the wave of the future. In the next class, we will begin to design our own recycling centers. You must decide if you want to recycle something old for a new purpose, or create a new product from existing parts. After all, this is the aim of recycling.

In order to complete this project, you must draw a location map, a center with at least 5 stages, and describe what you will recycle in detail. Let's look forward to it!

Introduction to Recycling

Akin to alternative energy is recycling. What is recycling? Recycling can be a process containing two veins of thought. One vein is to make something new from something old, such as making new paper from old newspapers or boxes. The second vein is to use something old for a new and different purpose, such as making a bag from old blue jeans. This process is often called repurposing, and is a different form of recycling.

The reason we need to recycle is to take old products and re-use them rather than using dirty resources, such as oil, and sparse natural resources, such as trees, for making new products. If we were to use dirty resources continually  or cut down trees continually for making new products, our earth would soon become barren, dirty and would soon break down. Therefore, recycling is very necessary for the future of our planet. The big blue marble, planet earth.
