What happens to cans if they are thrown into a garbage can?

When cans are thrown into a garbage can, they typically end up in a landfill where they can take many years to decompose. If not recycled, they contribute to environmental pollution and waste accumulation. However, if the garbage is sorted and the cans are recycled, they can be processed and repurposed into new products, helping to conserve resources and reduce environmental impact. Proper recycling helps minimize the amount of waste sent to landfills and supports a circular economy.

What wet garbage?

Wet garbage refers to organic waste that contains a significant amount of moisture, such as food scraps, fruit and vegetable peels, and other biodegradable materials. This type of waste is typically heavier and can decompose more quickly than dry garbage, leading to odors and attracting pests if not disposed of properly. Proper management of wet garbage is essential for effective waste recycling and composting processes. Many municipalities encourage separating wet garbage from dry waste to facilitate composting and reduce landfill contributions.
