Trash, also known as rubbish, refers to waste materials that are discarded because they are no longer useful or needed. This can include items like food scraps, packaging, old furniture, and broken appliances. Proper disposal of trash is important to maintain a clean environment and prevent pollution. Trash is typically collected by local waste management services and taken to landfills or recycling centers. Recycling helps reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills by processing materials like paper, glass, and plastic into new products. Understanding how to manage trash effectively is essential for sustainability and protecting the planet.
