    Metadata Updated: April 30, 2024

    The Story of a Banana Peel map journal from the "DCPS Recycles! School Waste Story Map" series. Have you ever wondered how a banana got to your tray? Bananas do not grow in most parts of the US. It takes about one year for a banana that you eat in school to make it to your tray. Where might it have come from? What happens to the banana peel when you discard it? Follow the journey of this banana peel to explore the story of a banana before and after it is eaten.The DCPS Recycles! program is designed to fulfill legal requirements; improve building operations; reduce waste of money and natural resources; achieve the SustainableDC target of zero waste by 2032; and teach DCPS students values and skills for a sustainable 21st century. The goal is to sort all waste properly so as much as possible can be composted or recycled instead of sent to a landfill or incinerator! Agency Website.
