    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that there are individuals who do not have enough room in their kitchens to accommodate various types of bins. This implies that these people may struggle with managing waste properly, as they are unable to separate different types of waste for recycling or disposal. Therefore, the answer "True" is appropriate as it aligns with the information provided.

    Correct Answer
    A. We have to change our habits.
    Explanation
    The answer "We have to change our habits" is the correct answer because it aligns with the speaker's statement that "Companies don't do enough" and "Different people can use our old things."
