this little lot is from 1 week at my college!  exterior grounds, not indoors.I am doing a project about reducing the amount of litter on campus.
 So, today, I hand sorted this lot to quantify exactly what the litter was.  Plastic soft drink bottles came top! any guesses what were the other main items were?  ;)

'any guesses what were the other main items were?'

Ugh.  No idea but I don't see any apple cores, banana skins etc.  So unless your students have access to 'green bins' too, I can only assume they snack on junk.   :(

If it was still in a container, they most probable left it by mistake as it is too expensive to dump.
