What a Waste!
As part of our Climate Change work, we have been looking at waste disposal! Even the best recyclers will still have about 20 - 30% of waste that cannot be recyclable! At the moment there are 3 main methods of waste disposal; landfills, incinerators and composting, we have looked at the pros and cons of each method and suggested our own unique solutions to this problem!

ReplyDeleteThe negative stuff about compost are that

My solution is that you send a HUGE rocket into space and release it far away from earth. Maybe it might be a bit expencive but it works for long term. Also it is !!!DRAMATIC!!!
ReplyDeleteAlex I think that will cost a lot and what if something happens that will be unexpected
DeleteWe could dig lots of big holes and put grabage in them and then close the holes
ReplyDeleteWould we run out of space eventually
DeleteYes we would run out of space eventually but then we could get another idea
Deletewe wouldent be able to grow stuff in the ground either
DeleteMy super solution is we send a big rocket into space with rubish and just dump the rubish into space
ReplyDeleteDoesent it cost a lot and it is MY idea
Deleteno its not youre idea its mine
DeleteMy idiea is that we can put the rubbish under the ground
ReplyDeleteJust a question... isnt it so that it will cost a lot for digging???
Deletewe will also run out of space
DeleteThe bad thing about compost is that you cant grow plants out of it.
ReplyDeleteAlex i like youre idea but it is realy expensive and it will cause a lot of pollution
ReplyDeletemy solution is that we make a lot of islands out of rubbish
ReplyDeleteBut what if the island breaks and we just polute the water even more???
Deletewe will make a wall around the island so it want polute the water
DeleteI dont thing that landfill will be a good idea because it myte be smellyyyyy.
