You need to keep fit to grow and stay healthy. We need to keep the environment healthy as well. One way we can do this is by recycling. At school, you may have learned about the three R’s - reduce, reuse and recycle. Reduce - use less if you can. Reuse - lots of things can be used again and not thrown away. Recycle - if things have to be thrown away, recycle as much as possible. This quiz is about how we can help the environment to stay healthy.
