What's the big deal with garbage, and how can YOU recycle?
"Both the good and the bad news about many categories of materials that humans produce and consume....the title is "drastic" plastic and "troublesome" trash--the writers want us to feel a bit troubled by it all. Troubled at least enough that readers will be motivated to make some changes to their behavior and perhaps even be inspired to help find new solutions....Recommended."--School Library Connection We don't think twice before we buy something new and when we go to the store we take the packaging for granted. But where does all our garbage go to and how can we keep it under control so that it doesn't ruin our planet? This thoughtful but incredibly fun book enters the mysterious world of recycling, discovering how materials such as plastic, glass, paper and electronics are made and recycled. It also looks at the many ways we can help to reduce the amount of waste we throw out, has suggestions and activities for upcycling and explains how recycling is crucial to preserving the beautiful and life-sustaining world we live in. Packed with astonishing facts, hands-on activities, bright, contemporary illustrations and dramatic photographs!Author Biography
