ARE you a responsible citizen who recycles, reuses and reduces waste? Well, let’s check out if you really care about your environment and your surroundings; here is an interesting activity game at Recycle City!

Here, you’ll play as a Dumptown’s new City Manager. When you begin, you’ll see Dumptown at its worst — it’s littered, polluted and nothing is being recycled or reused. There are many trash cans and dumpsters, but no recycling bins. That means all the trash is going right into the landfill just outside town, where it isn’t doing anyone any good.

As a manager you can start programmes that encourage Dumptown’s citizens and businesses to recycle and reduce waste. You have 10 programmes to work with; you will notice the good changes in Dumptown landscape when you try these programmes. You will also see how much waste you are saving from going into the landfill.

There’s a lot to do here — people and places to visit and plenty of ways to explore how the city’s residents recycle, reduce and reuse waste. To get started, just click on any section of Recycle City that you want to tour, or click on the Dumptown Game. You can go through activities area and see other ways you can explore. This activity game will not only make you learn recycling ways but will also develop a sense of responsibility in you towards recycling, reusing and reducing waste from your area.

When you leave this place, you’ll know much more about what you can do to help protect the environment. Have fun!
