Teach Engineering: 3 Rc (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Compost)

In this instructional activity, young scholars expand their understanding of solid waste management to include the idea of 3RC (reduce, reuse, recycle and compost). They will look at the effects of packaging decisions (reducing) and learn about engineering advancements in packaging materials and solid waste management. Also, they will observe biodegradation in a model landfill (composting).
