We need to make Earth's resources last for a long time, so people in the future can use them too. For example, imagine if we cut down all of the trees on Earth! Then, people in the future would suffer because trees provide many important things like the oxygen that we breathe, shade from the hot sun and wood to make things like paper and furniture. We need to recycle in order to take care of the Earth and to make sure people in the future have access to important resources.
