Scenario

You belong to a neighborhood group that meets monthly for informational talks. You are in charge of the upcoming talk and your topic is recycling. You may live in an area that has a recycling bin that gets emptied on a weekly basis, but your informational talk will focus on recycling centers near you. You are tasked with reporting to your neighbors where to recycle hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances that will not fit in or are not appropriate for the bins. You will need to make a handout in a Word document for your neighbors to take with them.

Question 1: Research what hazardous waste is and why it should be recycled properly. Do the same for electronics and appliances, noting your sources along the way.

Question 2: Using the Internet, find three recycling centers near your neighborhood. Among these three there should be options for recycling hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances; a single recycling center may not accept all three of these, but make sure between the three recycling centers that these needs are met. You will make note of what recyclables they accept, their locations, and their phone numbers for a table you will create. Keep track of the sources of this information for your reference page.

Question 3: Locate photos or images of each of the three types of recycling: hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances; making sure to note the sources of each photo or image.
