Paper and how to re-use it

Understanding waste cycle and recycle
While carrying out the “rifiuti a scuola” scheme (school waste) by Centro Antartide Association an important work has been done in primary, middle and high schools in order to give students full information on the waste cycle and promote a creative approach towards materials earlier considered useless.
