5. My Home And Life My Water comes from a well. My family recycles bottles, but we throw away everything else. Our trash goes to the dump. There is recycling in my home. Our recyclables go to a factory which turns them into new bottles. Our sewage gets stored in a septic tank. Then after a long time a truck comes and takes it to a processing plant where it is turned into fertilizer for plants.

6. Habitats Around my House Around my house there are many different habitats. One of those is a forest. It is full of trees and wildlife. A role my family plays in these habitats is we use them for fun like hunting which keeps populations at a controllable level. Another habitat near my home is a pond. The pond also is home to some wildlife and some plants. The role my family plays in this habitat is we don’t litter which keeps habitats clean. Like the pond. One more habitat near my house is a field. Many bugs, animals, and plants call this place home. The role my family plays in this habitat is by also not litter which could cause plants and animals to die. Those are some of the habitats around my home.
