In our apartments, we do recycling, so that may be the small step we take to protect our planet. We throw away the plastics and paper in different trash bins. I also turn off the consent when I don’t use any of the lights or electronics that needs power.

This is good to hear. What is recycling like in Korea? Is it good? Do they have separate garbage bins for plastic and cans, etc.? I would imagine it’s good. It was not very good in Kuwait where I last lived. It’s excellent in the U.S. and you can be fined if you don’t recycle.
