Recycling and upcycling is a critical part of our sustainable
environmental awareness. Remember when we were still in primary to
high school days and sometimes we have school projects out of
recycled materials? I think if you live in the
developing countries, recycling is already part of the lifestyles compared to the western countries where they will export their recycled overseas instead but at the same time, the western countries environment still
littering around where I live in
Australia. Mind you, school kids even litter over our backyard as we are just a fence away. There are many endless ideas for teachers to encourage their school kids to create projects out of recycled plastics and tins lying around. I believe it's time for Australia's schools to lead the way after
China ban any recycled materials being exported from Australia anymore.

Etsy from someone else. It's a great project for schools to create and raise funds as well, sell them offline or online too? (link may not be available when sold, but it is costly if you do this right about
AU$2,709.29) Although, it does not have to be this expensive? If the seller says, it's a thief, kinda but you're getting free advertising for your brilliant product. 😊
