This week’s Photohunt theme is Paper.
Paper come from tree.
Many trees make a forest.
Forest (tree) is scarce nowadays.
To help our forest, we must do the 3R.
Reuse, Reduce, Recycle.
I have a good collection of paper bags where I’ve been keeping for over a decade. I reuse them when I need a bag to carry my lunch, my clothes, etc.
We reduce paper by reusing the back portion of a ‘used’ paper.
We recycle our old newspaper, magazines, brochures, etc every few months once.
Have a nice weekend peeps.
