One way students or children can cut down on trash is by recycling plastic items and so people can reuse them. And also another way is to use some of the items such as plastic bags, You can make things out of plastic bags and it can help our planet so the bags do not get into the ocean hurting the sea animals. I think that there are many ways to help our Earth and I think that kids/students like me can help little by little so if you want to help I suggest it because if we keep doing what we do now then the future might not be the greatest. So help the environment!
