Scary rubbish statistics!

How long does it take rubbish to break down?  

Today we predicted how long we think it takes for various rubbish items to break down in a landfill.  We were VERY surprised to see the actual estimations that scientists have made.  The statistics made us think very differently about buying products and throwing things away.  

Remember to REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE

How long does it take to break down?
