Rubbish Bins
Aim: To learn practical ways of recycling so that we can make our world a better place.
How can we prevent climate change though recycling these products?
Plastics: the more you burn plastic the more gases go into the air and contaminate the air witch makes the world more hot.
Cycling or walking:when you are in a car driving somewhere you are releasing CO2 into the air witch contaminates the air.
Paper: the more you waste paper the more wood and trees leave the ground and soon we won't have any trees witch means we won't have any oxygen to breath witch will make humans go extinct.
Steel: as we burn steal and all hard wear we use for cars we release carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide into the air.
What is Zero Waste?
one of the quickest cheapest ways of community can immediately reduce climate impact.
What can we do on the planet?

MY INVESTIGATION.
Name: Glass
- How long do they take to decompose? 500 - 1 million years
- What resource / fossil fuel are they made from?the energy consumed in glass manufacturing industry comes from natural gas used to heat furnaces to melt raw materials to form glass.
- How is this resource recycled?Glass is taken from the bin and taken to a glass treatment plant. The glass is sorted by colour and washed to remove any impurities.
- How does this object contribute to climate change?That's because the glass walls of the greenhouse trap the Sun's heat.
