school to recycle material and avoid waste

 Some people think that children should be tought at school to recycle material and avoid waste. Other people believe that children should be taught this is at home. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Some people opine that parents should apprise children about recycling, whereas others say that school should do it. This essay intends to analyze both perspectives. I believe that both teachers and parents have to share this responsibility pro-actively.

On the one hand, there are many reasons why some people believe that teaching children about recycling should be done at home. Firstly, parents have the opportunity to teach children the importance of recycling early on in life, even before they start school. From a young age, parents can instill in children a strong sense of environmental ethics. Secondly, children spend a lot of time at home, and parents can set a good example by themselves to recycling household items like milk containers, soda cans, juice bottles cardboard boxes, etc. Children are good at imitating behaviours, and they observe their parents’ recycling, and they tend to do the same thing.

On the other hand, those who believed that schools are a better place to teach students about recycling and minimizing waste because some parents themselves are not much aware of recycling and how good it is for the environment. Teachers can provide parents the knowledge they need to minimize their carbon footprint through their children. Moreover, teachers are trained in child-friendly teaching strategies and can make recycling run rather than a chore for children. For example, teachers can help students turn recycled material into a craft or a science project.

I believe that both parents and teachers need to teach the next generation how to recycle and care about the environment. Teachers are considered experts, so children are more likely to listen to their teachers. At the same time, parents need to extend this initial groundwork laid out by teachers and follow recycling practices at home. This will ensure that children do not forget, and eco-friendliness becomes their second nature.

To sum up, children need to understand that resources are not limitless, and the combined effort of teachers and parents is needed to leave an imprint on the minds of children.
