Waste and Recycling

What a waste! Every day we throw things away, and our planet is piling on pounds of waste.
Waste and Recycling shows us how to combat the amount we throw away in the trash and how recycling more can help to save the planet. Learn about what happens to the trash we throw out, how much waste is organic, and what we can't recycle. Discover how recycling can turn your old junk into something new, and how recycling plastic saves oil. We all need to get thrifty and reduce waste by reusing old items!
Sensitively written with informative photographs, this is an important, high-interest read for young kids saving the planet.
