It's told in an upbeat and entertaining way with cool animations. It's designed to inspire you to think about stuff in a different way. Tell your friends and family about it or show it to your class.
Please vote for this idea, the video is really excellent.

Reduce, Recycle & Reuse your vacuum cleaner bags and reduce your impact on the environment. If your vacuum cleaner uses paper or material bags when the bag is full carefully open one end and empty contents into your compost heap shake the dust out then restaple the end of bag and reuse again. If you are real careful you can reuse several times. Better still when you replace your vacuum cleaner buy a bagless one or have wooden floors and use a broom.
