Last week in our Eco-Schools group we collected and organized rubbish from the school bins and transported them to a scrap dealer to sell. I was really surprised at how much rubbish there truly was. So many unopened letters and pamphlets.. Many of the promotional items from embassies and universities were coated in plastic and we were unable to recycle them. There was so much rubbish that we had to transport it to the scrap dealer in a car.
