Product Information "This thoughtful, well-written program fosters environmental activism." -ALA Booklist Best of the Year Award-Science Books and Films Recommended - School Library Journal Reducing, Reusing and Recycling: Environmental Concerns, produced by Rainbow Educational Media, helps students understand that solid waste is almost anything a person throws away, including trash and garbage. This program focuses on the problems created by solid waste and offer ways to help alleviate these problems. Students are made aware of the fact that natural resources are often the base for products that become solid waste and that many such resources are non-renewable, such as the aluminum in a soda can. Even renewable resources, such as trees that are cut down to make paper, are being depleted at a faster rate than we can renew them. Pollution problems like toxic substances get into the surrounding soil when garbage is disposed of in dumps. Landfill sites are filling up and new sites are difficult to find. Improper disposal of waste affects our land, water and air. It is past time to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Students in this video will demonstrate the "Three Rs" approach and we will see that we are, indeed, responsible for our environment and for the future of our planet. The included teacher's guide contains an introduction, objectives, summary of the program, review questions, discussion questions, suggestions for activities, glossary, bibliography, websites where students can find topic related information, and the complete program script. 26 minutes. Grades 4-6.  Tell a Friend about this item
