(NARRATOR) Hello, city! The time is 5:30 a.m. and a lot of us are getting ready to go to work! It is going to be a beautiful day.
Hi, my name is George and I am a garbage truck. I help keep this city clean. Since this is your first day on the job, I will show you what I do here. First, we drive around the city and collect garbage just like this.
Then I unload the garbage.
After that, we will see if some things could have been recycled and not thrown away.
OK, let’s go!
Look out!
Make sure you stop in front of all the stop signs and red lights.
OK, let’s get this last container.
Look on top of the roof! It looks like they are changing a water tower!
Look out!
(CAR) Thank you! You are a real hero! (GEORGE) You are welcome!
Our shift is almost over, so let’s go back to the warehouse and unload the garbage.
Look how many things could have been recycled. You too can help your city by putting trash into different containers.
These plastic bottles need to go to the container for plastics.
All this paper and cardboard should go for paper recycling.
And all these aluminum cans should go for aluminum recycling.
It is getting late. I will give you a ride home. Thank you for your help.
I am George and I am a real city hero!
