  2. What is Trash? • Trash is waste that is left behind that cannot be used for anything else. Trash can be made of many things – plastic, rubber, paper, glass, aluminum, and many other materials. • As we have learned, candy is usually in a wrapper. Once the wrapper is off the candy, however, it becomes trash.

  3. Trash should not be thrown just anywhere. It is very important to throw trash away in a TRASH CAN, or a GARBAGE CAN.

  4. Types of Trash • Biodegradable – this means that the trash is made up of materials that can break down and not hurt the environment. • Non-biodegradable – this means the trash is NOT made up of materials that can break down. This type of trash can hurt the environment.
