Which option produces more waste? Smaller containers
How do we know? When we compare them side by side we can see
that the smaller containers were made using more plastic than the
large bottle.
What can we do to reduce the amount of waste we will make when

What are other ways that we can reduce waste in our community?
Our school? Our homes?
