Reuse VS Recycle

Reuse is using something AGAIN and AGAIN without the need to be sent to RECYCLING CENTER (just like what you did for science project, that's reuse!)

Recycle is using something OLD to make something NEW through series of processes which are done in RECYCLING CENTER.

Materials that can be recycled are paper, plastic bottle, glass and metal can.

Multiple Choice

What do you think about using Recycle bag every time you shop in a supermarket, is it Reuse or Recycle?

It is REUSE!!

Because you are using the recycle bag AGAIN and AGAIN....

But why is it called as RECYCLED BAG? It is because the bag is made from recycle material.

If the question is about MAKING NEW RECYCLED BAG, than it is RECYCLED...but if its about USING the recycled bag, it is REUSED!!

Now lets try few example!!
