Waste Survey
Here is a summary of the results from your school’s waste survey:
Every year ‘Keep Australia Beautiful’ conducts waste surveys to see how much litter there is across Australia. Every survey calculates a National Litter Index which shows how much litter there is for a given area.
The litter density at your school is 51.75 items/1000 square metres. You can compare this to the Victorian National Litter Index which is 25 items/1000 square metres, and the national average which is 49 items/1000 square metres.
How does your school compare? Is it more or less than these numbers?
Which types of waste were most common?
From your survey, you found a total of 619 littered plastic items outside at your school.
You also found 287 pieces of non-plastic waste.
That means that overall, there was a total of 906 items littered at your school.
