Waste investigation

Room 15 along with Totara team investigated the waste from  one day's rubbish.  We wanted to find out what kind of packaging and products we throw out each day?
Out it goes!  I can see a banana peel.  Q: Where does that belong? In the compost or the rubbish bin?
We sorted and sorted .... and sorted and sorted..and sorted and sorted into 4 piles.  One for plastic, one for chippy wrappers, one for bread and one for paper!

Look how much plastic we have thrown out.  Did you know that we throw out 22 million plastic bags in New Zealand each week?
