Over the past few days the class and me have been learning about waste and what happens to it. We were shown some videos, one video was about what happens to the trash that we put in our rubbish bins. It talked about if you want to dump some big rubbish (e.g. dishwasher) you can go to a special place where they can recycle much more (e.g. tin roof plates). I thought this was really cool. On the other video we saw what happens to stuff that goes down any of our plug holes. It all goes to the same place and then it travels through many filtering cycles, before being poured into lakes, rivers or swamps. I found this very interesting and next time I hope you think before throwing something in the rubbish bin, or washing down scraps into the sink.
Thanks for reading,
