You must provide evidence that recycling is important (to the politicians themselves).
"I can start groups that would encourage
people to recycle and
stop going to war."
Kelsey from United States
Help increase public knowledge of the negative
effects of not recycling, of the lies and manipulations that might seem to
justify these actions. Ideas:
find
Kidlink kids
living in countries were governmental investments in recycling are low. Listen
to their personal stories. Good stories may be of interest to your collaborators
in the
journalists/writers
community. For example, they might combine good personal stories with dry
statistics of the number of kids in favor of doing something good to make
a more readable text or interview or show.
monitor what your local news say about investements that might threaten recycling. Check with alternative sources
to see if the news is correct, or misleading and manipulating. Contact the
news media to have mistakes corrected, or complain by sending an article
to your local newspaper.
help your schoolmates get a clear idea of why
recycling is needed. Your class or school magazine/newspaper may be an effective
means. Do not give up. We must fight together for a better world!
