Topic: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Grade Level: 3-6
The future in which Dax lives is not a pleasant place. Tired of getting oxygen through mechanical devices and sick of the cold, barren landscape, Dax travels from the future to our present where he discovers that people could have preserved the environment by conserving resources and by reducing, reusing and recycling their garbage. But they didn’t. People just didn’t seem to think their individual efforts would make a difference. Desperate to change his sparse world (our future world), Dax attempts to convince us to change our wasteful ways.
