In the USA they produce 4.4 pounds per person of rubbish a day. That is the same weight as 1 brick every day!

We are trying to make an eco-friendly change, so we produce less rubbish.
Do you wanna hear some of my ideas?
When I went to Australia with my granny, I went to some second-hand clothes shops. It was so much fun! And it’s also better for the environment. I liked that I got to choose things that other people had already given back. I chose a frilly dress. I wanted to get some shoes but they did not fit me. I could go back another day and see if someone donated some shoes that fit perfectly.
When you are done with something, you can bring it to charity. I brought to charity my baby books and my baby clothes I gave to a friend. And in exchange they gave me some clothes for my brother. That t-shirt could still be passed on now! It might be with you!
Tell me if you have ever swapped clothes or been to a charity shop or a vintage market?
If I give away my things, it makes me feel sad. I feel attached to my toys or my books or my clothes. Only if I am too big for the clothes then it’s ok. I like books and my parents buy me new books, but mummy has an idea that we will choose 7 books from our shelf and when our friends come for a playdate we will lend each other some books for 2 weeks! These are the ones I’ve chosen:
