The Chemistry teacher Mr. Newton had taken his first 2 hours to meet with the businesses around the local area. 

They had met with a representative from Republic trash, Holland energy park, and The new Health Pointe in Grand Haven. 

They had discussed the trash that they deal with and the difficulties that they have with disposing of the different types of waste. 

Newton’s class is working on a project to try and decrease waste in our local area. 

Afterward, the class is going to present their ideas to the same people and see what they say about their ideas.

A representative from health Pointe had said, “We are always looking for ways to decrease our waste, we use biodegradable utensils and use activated charcoal to get rid of some chemicals”. 

They are just one of the companies trying to help our communities with waste and recycling.
