When you go on the street, in the neighborhood and almost everywhere, you can always see four bins of different colors. It’s what China is carrying out (实施) — waste sorting (分类).
At present, waste in our life can mainly be divided into four kinds: recyclable waste, kitchen waste, harmful waste and other waste. Different kinds of waste should be put into different bins. Recyclable waste must be thrown into the blue bin. Kitchen waste should be collected in the green bin. Harmful waste should be in the red one and the grey one is for other waste.
Do you know what recyclable waste means? It’s the material that can be recycled or reused, including paper, plastics, glass, metals and so on. The kitchen waste includes vegetable leaves, peel, bone and others. Harmful waste is bad for people’s health and the environment. It needs to be carefully dealt with. Some may be buried and some may be burned.
There are many advantages of waste sorting. It helps to turn the waste into useful things. Chinese people, old and young, are learning environmental protection. Students in schools often take part in environmental projects. Actually, it’s not difficult for us to do this simple thing but our actions can make a great difference to the city. So take action now. Each of us should play a part in saving the environment.
