We were lucky to experience a beautiful day in the city of Seattle as we made our way on public transportation to the Downtown Seattle Public Library to see the Trash Tracker Exhibit put together by MIT students. They tracked trash from pick up to final resting place. They were able to track this trash by placing bar chips on different items like a sock, or computer, or can. The tracking codes were picked up by cell towers and recorded along their route. A simple sock could travel days and miles within the city before finally being disposed of. Here are some of our pics from that day.
