Details

The main goal for the project is to create educational content that will encourage individuals to actively participate in recycling and become "decomposers" of recyclable products. The content should emphasize that recycling is not solely the responsibility of governments and institutions but should also involve consumers. The project should also aim to highlight the inefficiencies in the current recycling system and research innovative methods to improve the sorting and collection of recyclables for higher purity and lower contamination at lower costs.


This will involve several different steps for the learners, including:


- Developing educational materials such as videos, infographics, and written content to promote recycling initiatives and the role of consumers.


- Collaborating with experts in recycling and sustainability to gather insights and innovative methods for improving recycling processes.


- Creating a plan for distributing the educational content to reach a wide audience and maximize impact.


Deliverables


By the end of the project, learners should complete the following tasks:


- Educational materials such as videos, infographics, and written content promoting recycling initiatives and consumer involvement.


- A distribution plan for the educational content to reach a wide audience.



Final deliverables should include:


- All educational materials in a format ready for distribution.


- A comprehensive distribution plan with strategies for reaching the target audience.
