Our dumpster dudes dig through garbage to investigate ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Joshua and Sean wanted to know what kind of waste their school is producing, and how to reduce it.

They conducted an experiment to demonstrate how much of the school’s waste could be recycled instead of thrown in the dumpster. They sorted the trash into piles and graphed their results.
