Title: RECYCLING PROGRAMME

To: Principal Anderson

Prepared by: Green Club

Recycling reduces our carbon footprint and helps protect our natural resources. However, the recycling system at our school is outdated and trash collected at our school usually ends up in landfills.

Representing the Green Club, I propose a plan for a new recycling programme. A large percentage of school waste is recyclable so we can make a huge impact on the environment with this programme. At the same time, promoting the importance of recycling also encourages students to do it at home.

As part of this programme, recycling bins will be placed in classrooms and the number of trash bins around the campus should also increase. Once a month, Green Club will organise a recycling event where students can help separate recyclable materials.

I hope to receive your approval on this and start the programme as soon as possible.
