Brighton High School

CE 2010/ENG 12b Final Project

Name: Isaac Tatton Title of Plan: Fixing The Garbage Problem

Action Plan

Goal:Get rid of trash in Brighton’s halls by using the allotted $500 to purchase garbage cans and bags for them. The idea is that with
an excess of garbage receptacles the students will have a higher chance of actually using one instead of acting like they are too far
away.

Objectives:
1. Determine what kind of trash cans should be purchased. What size, shape, and number will need to be purchased.

2. Purchase trash cans and place them throughout the building.

3. Create and place posters around the school, some with bull’s eye targets on them to be placed above the trash cans.

Objective 1: Determine what kind of waste receptacles are to be purchased.
