Conservation Volunteers – Help Keep Australia Beautiful Weekend, Cannington
Description
Have you ever thrown an apple core from your car window onto a roadside with the thought, ‘It will decompose’ or, ‘the birds will eat it’? In fact, organic litter can take months to breakdown in the environment and as well as attracting animals to the dangerous roadside, ingesting decomposing rubbish can be harmful to pets and wildlife. Litter degradability depends on a range of factors including climate and conditions. For example glass bottles take one to two million years to breakdown and an orange peel can take up to two years!
