The 3 R's

The message of environmental awareness is coming through in all forms and shapes, especially where you least expect it, as I just experienced, because I just found out that Jack Johnson (& friends) made a song called "The 3 R's", which goes something like this:

If you're going to the market to buy some juice
bring your own bags and you'll learn to reduce your waste
Gotta reduce your waste

And if your brother or your sisters got some cool clothes
try them on before you buy some of those
reuse
you gotta learn to reuse

And if the first two Rs dont work out
and you gotta make some trash, dont throw it out
Recycle
You gotta learn to recycle

You gotta learn to Reduce Reuse Recycle
Reduce Reuse Recycle
Reduce Reuse Recycle
Reduce Reuse Recycle

'cause three, thats the magic number
yes it is, its a magic number


Isn't it great?! I'm loving this :) And I hope this will become a hit!
