Do you know why you should recycle?  Do you know what you should recycle?  The Garbology Site by Naturebridge will will you figure it all out!  

Why is this important?  Because we need to be aware of where our trash goes and what happens to it when it gets there.  This is the start to understanding our environment so that we can help make it better.
