What's In Your Garbage?

Do you know what's in your garbage and recycling?

Looking through garbage is not one of the most fun experiences (unless you're a seasoned dumpster diver!), but it is educational.

Do you see any recylables in it? Any paper? bottles?others?

Any toxics (cleaning supplies are considered toxics)

Any metals, cardboards (don't forget the packaging)

How about the recyle bin?

Styrofoam? Plastic bags? Plastic packaging? They're all NOT recyclables
