Ever Wonder What Happens To Your Trash After Lunch?

Maspeth, NY 718-416-1656 
You meet up with a few friends and grab lunch at one of those great American hamburger joints. Cheeseburger, fries, cole slaw, a diet coke and some coffee. After inhaling almost all of the meal, you realize that you can’t finish the remaining eighth of your burger and the six French fries. 

The waitress comes over and takes your plate away, and all you can think about was how delicious that was. But did you ever think about what happens to your food or diet coke can when they take it to the back of the restaurant?

The fascinating video entitled “From Lunch to Landfill” was created by KPCC (Los Angeles public radio) and really lays out every step in a way that’s never been seen before (http://goo.gl/pm7sA).

What are your thoughts about the video, linked HERE?  

Let’s hear what you have to say on the Boro-Wide Recycling Facebook Wall!
