ice-cream wrappers, bottle caps, fallen leaves from trees and many more.

A lot of trash that is thrown
away contain material that can be recycled and reused such as paper, metals and
glass which can be sent to the nearest recycling centre or disposed of to the
junk dealer. It also contains organic matter such as leaves which can enrich
