This is a web resource that provides a student activity about waste reduction with a teacher guide describing the three key aspects of the activity: researching the environmental and social benefits of recycling and home composting and writing a short persuasive piece about reducing the waste sent to landfill; carrying out a waste-reduction activity at home; and presenting a final report on the practical activity. The waste-reduction activity, which encourages students to collaborate with their families to reduce the amount of home waste that ends up in landfill, is explained through stages in a student worksheet. Blank results tables are provided for students to complete.
