The term trash refers to all the waste or waste that humans produce. In other words, they are products, materials or food that are discarded because they have lost their usefulness or because they have already been used or lack any use.
It should be noted that a lot of garbage can be recycled, that is, subjecting it to certain processes in order to produce new elements. In this way, a great contribution is made to the environment since pollution is reduced and the use of natural resources is limited, which is often limited.
Within the garbage can be identified two groups, which are the following:
- Inorganic trash. It is one that does not derive directly from a living being, but is the waste that is produced from materials or objects that had been produced by humans. For instance: batteries, nylon bags, cables.
- Organic trash. In contrast to the previous case, this garbage does come from some living being or living organism, whose nature has not undergone any transformation. For instance: paper, wood, rotten fruit.
