Tips to Separate Rubbish
There are some tips on how to separate rubbish at home. The most simple way to separate your rubbish is by categorizing them into two types.
First, you can collect organic rubbish. Examples of organic rubbish are food scrap, leaves, plants and soil. They can go into the composter. They
are good to use as fertilizer. Second, you should collect non-organic rubbish. The materials that belong in this category are paper, plastic, cardboard, metal and fabric. Before we throw them into the recycle bin, we should clean them. Then, they can be recycled into new products.
