Sorting and Recycling
To talk about eco-friendly practices, you will need a few key action verbs: a recicla (to recycle), a refolosi (to reuse), and a sorta (to sort). You can use these alongside materials like cartonul (the cardboard) or descriptive words like ecologic (eco-friendly).
| We have to recycle the cardboard and the paper. | Trebuie să reciclăm cartonul și hârtia. |
| It is eco-friendly to reuse plastic bags. | Este ecologic să refolosim pungile de plastic. |
Waste and Bins
Once you have sorted your materials, you need to know where they go. In Romanian, waste is deșeul, and a large trash bin or dumpster is tomberonul.
| I wanted to sort the waste at home. | Voiam să sortez deșeurile acasă. |
| There were two bins for waste there. | Acolo erau două tomberoane pentru deșeuri. |
| Help me take the cardboard to the other bin. | Ajută-mă să duc cartonul la celălalt tomberon. |
Protecting the Environment
When discussing the planet as a whole, the two most common nouns are mediul (the environment) and natura (nature). A major threat to both is poluarea (pollution).
| Pollution destroys the environment and nature. | Poluarea distruge mediul și natura. |
| If we protect nature, pollution decreases. | Dacă protejăm natura, poluarea scade. |
| Tell me how we can protect the environment! | Spune-mi cum putem proteja mediul! |
