Even though many cities have recycling programs,
lots of trash still ends up in the dump. I thought I
would find out which
lots of trash still ends up in the dump. I thought I
would find out which
materials break down and which materials won’t. Will these
results change the products you mostly buy? Over the course of 5 weeks I buried several items such as paper towel, toilet paper, plastic bags, plastic cups to see how much they will degrade. I then created a scale to rate them with and also researched what landfills are and how items are recycled. Then I came up with solutions to use less plastic in order to reduce the waste because nobody wants to live next to a landfill.
