6 Going Green 4 Conversation Jasim: رابط الدرس الرقمي www.ien.edu.sa That was a great garden barbecue! But there are soda cans everywhere. I'll help you clean up. Where do you keep your recycling bins? Ibrahim: Nowhere. We don't recycle. Jasim: You don't recycle! Why not? Ibrahim: I don't know. It's just always seemed like it would be a hassle. Jasim: Don't you think it would be a good idea to make the effort? Ibrahim: guess. I do feel kind of guilty about it. But then again, does it really make that much of a difference? Jasim: Are you kidding? Recycling reduces energy consumption, lessens air and water pollution, and saves landfill space. It's a no-brainer. Ibrahim: I just don't have the patience. It seems like a lot of extra work. It's so much easier to just chuck everything in the garbage than to sort it by material for recycling. That's a lame excuse. Recycling is a piece of cake. It becomes automatic before you know it. Jasim: Ibrahim: I suppose you're right. OK, OK. I'll start to recycle. Jasim: Great! Hey, why are you throwing that can in the garbage? Ibrahim: Whoops!
