Waste

Waste is anything we throw away that we don't need anymore. When we throw away things like cans, bottles, paper, and plastic, it goes in the garbage and is taken away to be burned or buried in a landfill. This makes it hard for the environment because these things can't break down or be reused. We can help the environment by recycling these things! Recycling means taking the same materials and turning them into new items, like a new can or bottle. Doing this helps to reduce waste and keep our planet clean and healthy.
