Litter Report
By Mrs. DeToro’s Class
We read a book about recycling and had many questions about it. Most kids in the class wanted to know why people litter. To find the answer to our question, we created a litter survey. We asked these questions:
- Do you litter?
- If yes, why do you litter?
- If no, why do you think people litter?
Results
Fifty-six (56) students took the survey. Twelve (12) students said yes, they did litter, and forty-four (44) students said no, they did not litter. Here are the reasons they gave for littering:
- Can’t find a garbage- 2
- Easy- 1
- Because I can- 1
- Lazy-5
- No time-1
- Accident-2
Additional Questions
What percentage of people in the world litter or don’t litter?
What would happen to a rat that littered?
What are ways you can stop littering?
