Recycle Week Poem – Why Recycle by Nils

June 22nd, 2009 by mark

Earlier on this Year my son, Nils aged 7, took part in the latest Young Writers competition ‘My First Acrostic’. This competition is used as an introduction to poetry and creative writing, that children find both inspiring and fun.

Nils’s first acrostic was about why we should recycle.

My wife and I were delighted to be inform that Nils’s Recycle poem had been selected for publication. Therefore to celebrate the start of ‘WRAP’s Recycle Week’ I thought that my first post for Recycle Now readers should be this poem. So here it is;

WHY RECYCLE by Nils (7)

Why should we recycle?

How can you help the environment?

You can be recycling

Recycling is good

Every day reuse

Cycle to school

You must throw waste in a recycling bin

Carry your bottles to the bottle bank

Learn to put litter in the bin

Each of us must be responsible.

Don’t forget you can now go to the Recycle Now website to make your pledge.

Also as bonus if you sign up to MoreEco during Recycling Week, where you can earn cash back rewards on all you eco shopping,  we will give you an extra 100 joining points. Use offer code ‘recyclenow’.
