Take the kids to a landfill to see first-hand what happens to the things they throw away. While you're there, point out items that should have been recycled, reused, or never bought at all. Discuss how many landfills there are and how quickly they're reaching capacity. Make our garbage problem real to kids, not just something they read or hear about, and hopefully they'll become part of that 'Greener Future'. Planning a field trip?
