15．We need to be responsible for our environment．Being a frugal consumer（节俭的消费者） is one way to help．Bet，what exactly does that mean？
Use It Up
You can use things up instead of wasting them．Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out of the tube．Use the last title piece of soap．Don't throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box．
Wear It Out
You do not always need to have new things．Suppose your sneakers have broken laces，but they still fit you．Repair them and wear them longer．You don't have to have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn't work any more．They you can get a new one．Think twice before replacing something that still work．

Do Without
Think about all those things that you would like to have．Do you really need them？How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV？Making the things that we want uses up our world's resources （资源）．And，getting rid of the things we don't want any more takes up even more resources and space．

66．How do we deal with the last little piece of soap？Use it up．

19．Did you know that each day one person in the US throws away 4.4pounds of rubbish？Almost every month，we throw away our own rubbish in packaging alone．Packaging （including boxes，bags，etc） comes to our homes with the things we have bought．Several weeks ago，the TV news said that in a city in Italy tons of rubbish were piled up in the streets，and the smell was rather terrible．What can we do to help？We should get to know the following Rs．
Reduce To reduce means to make less rubbish．That is one of the first things we all should do for the environment．Reduce your rubbish by doing things like packing your lunch in reusable containers（可再利用的容器），taking smaller potions（份） at dinner so you don't waste food when you have had enough，writing on both sides of paper，and using less water when taking a shower．
Reuse To reuse is to use things again．Think about the bags you get from the store．They can be reused to carry your lunch，to hold your rubbish，or to collect used cans．You can even take them back to the store the next time to carry your things instead of getting a new bag!
Recycle （回收利用） Recycling is an important part of keeping our planet clean and green．It can also save energy．Be sure that you don't throw things in the rubbish that can be recycled to make something else．Paper，plastic，cans and bottles can all be recycled，but food，electrical waste and mobile phones can't．When you are not sure whether something can be recycled，go to your parents and teachers for advice．
Follow the three Rs，and every one of us can do something to save the earth．It is also the best way to save ourselves．
