"Meet Utah’s Pint-Sized Environmental Activists"

"COTTONWOOD HEIGHTS — The movement started last spring with a dinner table conversation at then third-grader Aggy Deagle’s home.

Aggy’s family talked about Earth Day approaching and what their family might do to help the planet.

Aggy homed in on the hundreds of foam trays used by the school district’s lunch program at Butler Elementary School, where she and her little sister, Liv, are students.

It really bugged her that each of those trays end up in a landfill, where they likely wouldn’t break down for 500 years, if at all."
