FUNCTION: how does the waste of paper and plastic work?

**SYNTHESISE:**

Sofia B and Sofia T, 23-5-11

it's very simple. the waste is producted when the people throw in an unessesary way materials that can be used, at homework, posters, circulars, printing, bathroom, photocopies, nostes at class, bottles of water, plastic bags and plastic packets. you make waste using or cosuming more than what you need of these materials. it also happens at the beginig of the year, at the materials list, were more than 5 bolcs are ask and at the end of the year are not used. Then evendough we have some classes abou recycling, we use many plastic and paper in the school and then is when we start wasting, using more than what we should and wasting paper, loosing trees, wasting plastic, loosing quiality of the land.

For wasting first you buy the material made of plastic/paper, then you use it, correctly or in a incorrectly way, then you just throw it to the trash can, then insted of beeing recycle that is what it should be done is taken buy a truk that takes at least 5 tones of thrash per day to a dump where all thrash that goes there is burned and it pollutes the air. In all the process there are many part that pollute in different ways, with deforestation, if the trash is in the green area and an animal eats it the animal can get sick or die, also it pollutes the water because if the wind take the plastic or paper to a river or any little river it pollutes, and the air because when its burned the chemicals that the plastic and paper has pollutes the water.

Synthesise in spanish
Es muy facil. El gasto es producido cuando la gente tira en una manera innesesaria materiales que se pueden volver a usar, en tareas, carteleras, circulares, imprimiendo, baño, fotocopias, notas en clase, botellas de plastico, bolsas de plastico y paquetes plasticos. Tu haces gasto cuando usas o consumes mas de lo que nesecitas de alguno de esosmateriales. Tambien pasa al principio del año, en la lista de materiales, cuando el colegio pide mas de 5 blocks y al final del año la mitad o mas sobra o no se usa. aunque tengamos clases the reciclaje, nosotros usamos mucho platico y papel en el colegio y ahy es cuando empezamos a gastar, usando mas d lo que nesecitamos gastando ppel y plastico, persiendo arboles gastando papel en el colegio, gastando plastico, perdiendo mucha calidad de tierra.

Para gastar primero tu compars el material papel/plastico. Despues lo usas.correcto o incorrecto. desoues implemente lo tiras a la basura, despues enves de recuclar el material y ya no hay nada que hacer porque despues un caion de basura lo recoge y es un camion que lleva mas o menos 5 toneladas de papel por dia. Donde lo lleva a un ollo donde se quema y luego el hum va al aire contaminandolo. En todo el processo hay differentes partes donde se polluciona, deforestation. Si la basura es tirda en un area verde un animal puede comerlo y quedar enfermo o se puede morir,, tambien puede contaminar el agua porque el viento lleva el plastico y el papel al rio cualquier rio, pequeño, grande, se contamina. y tambien porque cuando se disuelven los quimicos que sacan el plastico y el papel contamina el agua, porque se llena los quimicos adentro del agua. 

**RESEARCH:** These are the different cycles of wasting:  

Sofia T 19-5-11 CYCLE OF PRINTING AND HOMEWORK of homework and of printing

juliana gutierez 23/5/11 cycle of office Sofia B, 22-5-11 cycle of cafeteria: First the children buy a product that is in sell in the caffeteria where the pakage is of plastic. Then the child consume the product. Because of the lack of awarnessthe child throw the pakage to the floor or to an incorrect trash bin. When is throun to an incorrect trash bin a truk takes all the rubish and burn it on a dump. if it's throun to the floor it takes more than 500 years to decompose so it affects the land.

Juliana gutierrez 17/5/11 How does waste function? Well its just like this we waste in homework, in notes, a poster that in the future is in the trash or in the floor anywhere. There is a 95% of a school thta wastes paper and plastic. The moyarity of the paper waste is produce in the list of materials for the school because in the majority of the cases the school asks for more paper that the ones they need. Also the waste of paper is produced in the fotocopies or permisos beacuse then it is throwen away.also when people print and dont use both sides or when they skip so much space, when they make an error and it is half page they just throw it. Also in the toilet aper there is a lot of waste a lot! Moreover the kids, adults, administrator, techers, rector, head of section everyone that work in the school wastes paper and plastic.Furthemore people dont clasify them in the correct bin they just throw it away, and when the guy of the cleaning goes paper is damage and with no remedy to the damage paper and he cant recycle it.

Sofia Torres 11/5/11 People waste paper in homework making poster that in the future won´t serve for anything. Also by taking notes of tha class and of presentation and by written homework.The moyarity of the paper waste is produce in the list of materials because in the majority of the cases the school asks for more paper than the needed so more paper is waste, sometimes you can even see blocks for years ago.Also the major paper wasting is made on the photocopies and at the offiese. Becauase people before printing don´t revise the errors so when they printe it and see the error, they need to print it again. Also, people print more photocopies than the ones that are needed so, many paper is left but is already printed.Moreover, people waste all this paper and don´t classify it on the correct conteiner or in put it on the scrap paper bin. People waste plastic by buying plastic bottles at the cafeteria and then throwing them away in the incorrect conteiner or not reusing them for putting other drink inside or making something artisitc with it. also people waste by bringing to school plastic packets as of chips,choclitos,brownies ect and throwing them away in the incorrect conteiner.

People also waste a lot of paper when they don't use both sides of a paper and when tey skip too much spaces. Also when they make an error they just throu it to the rubis and this is a big waste. An effect of this is that more and more trees are cut down for the pruduction of paper. Thre is also lot of waste with the bathroom paper because childrien use use all the paper wasting it and even without needing it.People also waste paper when they don't print things in both sides of a paper, this is waste paper because they use more paper for printing when it can be less.There is a lot of waste of paper around the school because children throw the paper to the trash, and normally to an incorrect trash bin so when the guy that resycle the paper in the school can't recycle that because is already damage.

pablo florez 12/5/11 plastic bottles, shampoo containers, plastic bags they all are indispesable for humans but what they dont know what happen with the plastic thats go into ground and it affects the animals of air ground and water they fel atracted by the colours of the plastic and then they diewe only need to take awarness of this an do anaction so they stop eating what we throw. we don't care about the nature but nature needs our care.we have been seing this and we have not change the kids say that they know how to recycle but they realy dont know
