This project addresses the environmental and economic impact of automotive waste, namely coolant, oil, tires, and refrigerant. It also outlines the recycling possibilities and legal ramifications of the disposal of such pollutants. This report served as the basis for a webpage that covered the above topic. Finally, a survey was conducted to evaluate the effect of the webpage on high school students.
