Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Emily who loved playing in the park.

One day, Emily found a plastic bottle lying on the ground. She picked it up and wondered what to do with it.

Emily's mom taught her about recycling and how it helps protect the environment. She told Emily that the plastic bottle could be recycled into something new.

Excited to help the environment, Emily carried the plastic bottle to the recycling bin.

At the recycling center, the plastic bottle was sorted with other recyclables. Emily watched as it was melted down and turned into tiny plastic pellets.

The plastic pellets were then transformed into a brand new plastic bottle! Emily was amazed at how recycling could give something old a new life.

Emily's mom explained that recycling reduces the amount of waste in landfills and helps conserve resources, like oil and energy.

From that day on, Emily always made sure to recycle bottles, cans, and paper. She knew that every small act of recycling made a big difference for the Earth.

And so, Emily and the plastic bottle lived happily ever after, knowing they were helping to protect the planet.
