Activity 7: Where Does Your Garbage Go?
This activity will familiarize students with the practical terminology and issues of municipal solid waste (MSW) at the community level. Students will consider the solid waste program of a municipality, and then will study their own community’s program. Through exchanging data with students in another community, they will gain additional insight into the management of MSW.
