Here Comes the Garbage Barge!

Here Comes the Garbage Barge!

The garbage barge is coming, but no one wants it! A garbage filled barge travels with more than 3000 tons of garbage from New York all the way to North Carolina, only to get turned away. After several months and many attempts to get rid of the garbage, the smelly barge must return to where it came from!

This story is based on an event that happened in 1987. It's a great story that reminds us of how important it is to recycle and not produce so much garbage!
