The rubbish Alien

By Monty, aged 9

Zumba was on an important mission to recycle all the rubbish in the slowly dying Earth by sucking all the rubbish into his never ending bag. Then, he would turn the recycled plastic into a spaceship and the recycled plants into fertiliser for the space crops.

He went to Earth and started collecting the rubbish. Cheerfully, Zumba went to each house and knocked on the door. Hopefully, he asked for their rubbish. Some householders screamed and ran off, terrified by the alien at their door, but others replied, “You can have our recycling.” So, Zumba sucked it up into his never ending bag. After some time, he was beginning to get a little tired and bored. There was so much junk that he thought his bag might burst, even though it was never ending!

Once he had finished collecting all the refuse, he took the leftover food outside to recycle in a gigantic compost heap. It stank! Next, he got the plastic waste and tried to recycle it, but then he realised there was a problem. Horrifically, he couldn’t recycle all the plastics or all the food! Some plastics you can’t recycle and some foods you can only recycle at a really high temperatures. What could he do? He had a big idea, but he would need his considerate friend to help. Creatively, he would put on a show about how you can’t recycle all types of plastics. Excitedly, he got his friend Zam and dressed him up as a recycling wizard. They broadcasted their show all over the world and taught the world population that you can’t recycle all plastics, so the world took back all the unrecyclable plastics and didn’t make them again.

Zumba made his spaceships out of the recycled plastics and made the fertiliser for the space crops out of the food leftovers. The people of planet Earth started to recycle all the foods and plastics so then climate changed stopped and they lived happily in harmony with the aliens.
