   Educating all ages about the importance of recycling and caring about our planet will further broaden the knowledge and techniques that can be applied. Children are educated about recycling not only in schools but are also targeted through what is known to be their attractions which are network television and games. The following are websites are broadcasted for our youth:

In order to protect our future generations from suffering, the effort has to come from every individual on this planet. Together we can make a difference, and preserve the rights of beauty of habitat even if it is not noticeable in our time, our personal attempt will progress through the years.
