Students brainstorm ideas for board game formats. Then student teams design, create and test games in which players must think of alternative uses (recycling) for used products.

Environmental engineers are continually designing new ways to protect our environment and improving on recycling techniques. Recycling is a great way to reuse items so that less waste is put into landfills and is important for materials that are difficult or costly to obtain.
