七、Dear friends,
Hello, everyone! I’d like to tell you something about the show “Working the Waste into Magic”.
A number of creative works were on show, including clothes made from waste paper and model planes made of used wood and glass. Another fascinating work is a chair that is made of plastic bottles. People glued them together and painted in different colors.
I was most interested in a backpack for computers. It is made out of a pair of old jeans! With the zipper of jeans on the top, two pockets on two sides, the backpack looks both useful and fashionable. It even has a logo!
I felt amazed at how waste could be put to such good use. It really helps to save energy and build a greener future.
