As teenagers，changing the world does not only mean finding a cure for cancer，or finding the origin of humanity，but recycling a piece of paper as well．Going Green is a practical way that teenagers can have a real and meaningful influence in the world．What follows are three simple ways teenagers can go green and change the world．
Recycle
According to a Wire & Twine online article，63million newspapers go out to street vendors （摊贩），local paper boys，or newspaper dispensers every day and of those 44million are thrown away．Recycling the Sunday newspapers alone we could save half a million trees a week．The age of technology creates new phones，iPods，or new computers．Many people will stand in line for hours to get their hands on the new piece of technology，but what happens with the old ones？Nothing．According to Earth911，about 75% of the old devices （设备） are thrown in the back of a drawer collecting dust．
Go vegetarian （素食主义） one day a week
Here are some amazing facts on going vegetarian for only one day．According to Noam Mohr，a physicist at the New York University，the United States would save 100billion gallons of water which is enough to offer all homes in New England for about 4months．The Environmental Defense concludes with the most interesting fact：if the whole population gives up one meal of chicken，the amount of carbon dioxide accumulated （累积的） would be the same amount if more than half a million cars were taken off U．S．roads．So giving up just one day of eating meat is worth the advantages it could bring．
Don't drink too much bottled water
There is a common idea that bottled water is healthier than regular tap water．However，25% of bottled water comes from regular tap water which goes through a filter （过滤）．Bottled water companies do not need to list where they got the water from，how they clean the water，or what chemicals their plastic water bottles have．Plastic bottles do not get recycled 90% of the time which results in 1.5million tons of plastic in landfills which are not easy to decompose （分解）．In fact，after considering that bottled water and tap water have few differences，people should use more reusable water bottles．"
Just keep in mind what Margaret Mead once said，"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful and committed （坚定的） citizens can change the world．Indeed，it's the only thing that ever has．"
