Opening statement to start the call, Hi, my name is Ben Sommer is this a good time to talk go tNagel middle school and i would like to ask you some questions about how Rumpke works.

Ending: Thank you for your time and i am happy you could help me.

What the expert said: I talked to a girl named Mollie at Rumpke and she gave me a lot of info. Rumpke has one of the best available trash waste and recycling systems. The way that Rumpke deals with trash is by using a landfill, first the trash is collected by a garbage truck and compressed into a tighter solution and then is berried in the ground to be renewed into the earth. Rumpke also uses recycling witch burns to a melted product or gets wet and is made back into what it was first in the beginning, things Rumpke recycles are glass plastic paper and other things. I think that these process's could help Rome.

Solution to Romes waste management problem. I think that Rome should recycle and have landfills, this would help because they would be renewing their trash and not polluting their water and streets.
