  4. Is litter a problem in your city? Is it recycled? There are some ways of work with waste, they are called: The 3R’s Select products with the least wasteful packaging. Buy products made of recycled materials. Reuse bags, containers, papers, boxes and other items or pass them on those who could use them too. Remember: Lots of products can be recycled( like cans .bottles, paper ) Buy products that can be recycled as they take less energy than making products from brand new materials. Besides, some recycled products can be made into other goods.
