7.+Conclusion


 * Conclusion **

My hypothesis was correct. l reduced my dry garbage by 85%. The reason it reduced was because my family tried hard to recycle plastic, glass bottles, paper, cardboard and milk bottles. Also we used cloth bags instead of plastic bags when we went supermarket shopping. Our food rubbish reduced by 78%. The reason it was reduced was because we composted all our food scraps. Dry garbage was easier to reduce because we recycled as many items we could and my action plan was detailed and easy to follow.In total my family reduced our rubbish by 83% over the 3 weeks. That is 83% worth of rubbish that will NOT BE SENT TO A LANDFILL!
