Abstract | This action research project sought to increase the waste management and recycling knowledge among 20 children age 4 and 5 years enrolled in a preschool program in Thessaloniki, Greece. A structured interview was developed to assess the children's pre-intervention knowledge of waste management and recycling. It indicated that most children knew little about waste and recycling. Over the course of a 7-month period the children were then exposed to an educational program that used in-class recycling bins, visits to parks and neighborhoods to observe litter, in-class discussions on litter and recycling, role-playing, and a visit to a recycling plant. Results of post-intervention interviews indicated that nearly all of the children understood basic concepts of waste management and recycling, and profited from the program. (Contains 11 references.)
