Recycling is not only good for the environment, but also gives something that seems not so valuable a change to be something else. Mateo Lange, a 15-year-old from Michigan, US, is bringing1 to the environment and his community through his weekend recycling efforts.
At 11 years old, while playing baseball, Lange2 his team needed money for competitions. He soon came up with a plan. In Michigan, cans and bottles can be3 and redeemed ( 兑 换 ) for money. The amount is 10 cents per item and is added as an extra fee at the time of buying to4 litter and protect the environment.
With the help of his 5 , Lange started a recycling program, raising $7,500 in just a few weeks. "We've raised so much money, 6 why not continue as long as we can?" he said. This success made him7 and encouraged to continue the project with his father.
In 2019, Michigan stopped its recycling program, leading to bottles and cans8 accumulating (堆积) in people's homes.
Lange's recycling9 offered a solution. With his father's help, they helped people get rid of their recyclables and 10 did pickups from people's homes. "I'd just run out, knock on the door and say, ‘I'm here to11 litter.' I'd catch the bags and pull them to the truck," Lange said.
Since 2020, Lange's recycling plan has raised $350,000 and helped over 50 local youth groups. Besides, it has prevented more than 2 million bottles and cans12 polluting Michigan's roadsides, lakes and rivers. "It has kept our community a lot13 ," Lange said.
In 2023, Lange received the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes, recognizing14 environmental efforts and community impact. He believed the world would become a much better place.
Lange always said, "Be15 . Have an idea and build on it," Whenever he was asked about his cleanup achievements.
