Event Description
: Students will collect trash around campus, separate into groups, complete a statistical analysis of the distribution of these materials and then extrapolate the percentrage breakdown of the waste as compared to the student body to arrive at a yearly total of all materials that could be recycled but instead are thrown away or simply lost.  In addition, my high school environmental science students will complete a presentation at the elementary school to instruct students on the basics of recycling.
