Abstract

In 2014, we educated Hispanic families about the 3 Rs (i.e., Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) and documented their improvements. In 2015, we want to educate more families about the 3 Rs and also about other ways they can reduce their resource use. To broaden our reach, we plan to create a event in which we focus on children so they can spread the word with their parents and other adults. We plan to teach about the 3 Rs and other topics like energy use and how it will benefit our community environmentally and economically.
