Video: Pinole Valley High School Waste Audit

Project focused on awareness of trash produced and the need for recycling.

This YouTube video is a presentation about The Waste Action Project at Pinole Valley High School, in which students conducted a "waste audit" of 32 pounds from trash in garbage cans on campus.

The video, made possible with help from RecycleMore, found that recyclable materials accounted for almost half of the garbage haul and 15 percent of the trash was untouched food.
