Explore Waste with Kids

Waste Deep: The Waste Deep lesson series for middle and high school students takes an in-depth look at the economic, social, and environmental impacts of waste on New York City and the world.  Students work together to gain an authentic and holistic understanding of different issues. They are guided to pitch solutions to their peers, motivating their school and our city towards Zero Waste. How far and deep the students go is up to them!
