This session showcases a series of interdisciplinary lessons across multiple grade bands (k-5, 6-8, and 9-12) where students will conduct hands-on research and activities at their school to identify patterns in food waste and examine how food waste impacts our environment and communities. Students will also research landfills in North Carolina and examine solutions such as waste reduction, education, and composting.
