DON’T LET them DISAPPEAR
The world is home to different kinds of amazing animals, but unluckily, many wild animals around the world are in danger. Every day between 150 and 200 species disappear. To help save the animals in danger before it’s too late, we’ll introduce you to some endangered species (濒危物种) that you need to know about!
When the buying stops, the killing can too!
Elephants mostly live in Africa and Asia. But today, they are facing a serious problem: large numbers are being killed for meat and skin, especially for ivory. They are in danger! Only when we stop buying elephant products can we stop the killing and save them. Let’s say NO to sale!
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Green turtles live in the ocean (海洋) and they can live very long lives. However, billions of single-use plastics are dumped into the sea. Different kinds of sea life are in danger! If you’re going to the beach, please remove any trash you may bring and pick up any rubbish you may see.

Mulberry Street was a quiet and peaceful place. Every Monday was a special day there because it was recycling day. People, including Jenna’s family, would put colorful boxes full of paper, plastic, and cans on the sidewalk. Then trucks would come to take the recyclables (可被再利用物) to the city’s recycling center.
One Saturday was different for Jenna. She woke up early, feeling very excited. She was going to the recycling center with her dad. She wanted to share what she had learned during a school field trip to the recycling center the week before.
When her dad called her to start collecting recyclables, Jenna quickly ran downstairs. As they worked, Jenna told her dad many interesting facts. She suggested they could give old magazines and books to the library so that they would have a second life. Jenna also explained what she had seen on her field trip. “After recyclable material is put on the conveyor belt, the machine presses (挤压) it down to make it smaller. Then it wraps (缠绕) plastic tightly around it. Then, someone takes those little packages to different places in the city. They are used to make all kinds of new things!”
