I teach fifth graders and many have agreed to join an after school program called Earthforce. Earthforce is a non-profit organization who works with teachers and students to bring awareness to environmental and community issues. The purpose of Earthforce is to help mold and create youth that are caring citizens who are dedicated to helping the community and the world. The students chose to concentrate on improving the school and community鈥檚 recycling programs. Students noticed that many students and teachers are unaware of what can be recycled or are not using the recycling bins in the correct ways. The students feel with education this problem can be eliminated. The students decided that they also want to target the community members who are not taking advantage of recycling service due to being unaware of what to do.
