Listen to the dialogue and choose the correct option

Jane: Hey Bill! Do you care about the environment?

Bill: What do you mean, Jane? Well, I turn off the light when I exit the room. And I also turn off the water while brushing my teeth.

Jane: Sounds great. But I mean do you recycle?

Bill: I've heard of recycling but I don't really know much about it. How can you recycle?

Jane: Well, for example, when you buy yourself a can of soda drink you don't throw the can into the trash can. You wash it and take it for recycling. There are certain companies that take recyclable materials and make new things or materials of them.

Bill: How come? What can you get from a … ummm… milk bottle?

Jane: Oh, a lot! What do you wear in winter when you go outside?

Bill: Of course, I wear a down jacket. But you didn't reply to me!

Jane: I did. Your down jacket is stuffed with a synthetic winterizer. And this material is made of your plastic bottles that you recycle after you have finished the drinks.

Bill: What?! I can't believe this! A plastic bottle makes me warm in winter! What other garbage can be that useful to us?

Jane: Different plastic toys like scoops or buckets can be recycled into a big modern playground for children. Isn't that cool?

Bill: And what about glass bottles?

Jane: Glass bottles can become other glass bottles in a while. But in New Zealand they make special artificial sand for the beaches out of beer glass bottles!

Bill: That's just a wow! I love recycling! What about paper or carton? They are degradable. I can just throw them away.

Jane: Yes, you can but you can get new paper or carton, isn't it better? Paper and carton are made of wood. And wood is very important because the trees produce the oxygen we breathe. Millions of trees are cut down every year just for making paper! If you think that way, you'll find out that recycling paper and carton is vital.

Bill: Oh, and I also read that now people are trying to produce paper out of fallen leaves or out of wheat. Doesn't it sound really great? Maybe we won't need to cut down so many trees in our nearest future…
