Kitchen Trash   Home Recycling   Compost Bin
So many different items compose what we call "trash." See the photo above for an example.
In your Science Notes, define these terms:
biodegrade
photodegrade
decay
organic matter

inoranic matter
marine debris
Use the rubbish bins that you have at home. Examine the contents- (you DO NOT have to empty out the trash unless you want to), just note what you can see from the surface. Create a table showing what is biodegradable, what can be recycled, which items are organic. 
If you are unsure which column to place an item into, list it outside the table under "unknown". What resources could you use to find out how to classify items?

Due Wednesday
