Hi everybody, it's Ben.
While me and my daddy were starting a fire we asked each other a question, is it better to have a fire in your fire place or use the heater. we asked each other that because most people use newspaper to start fires. The newspapers have ink in them so when you burn them that ink harms the air. Using the heater uses electricity tho, so they both harm the earth. I'm leaving the answer to you, which one harms the earth more. I think that burning the newspaper harms the earth less, because to recycle the newspaper the garbage truck has to drive here to get it, then gas is used to power the motor to do the recycling process.
