If you look aruf you maybe you can get some ideas on how garbage contributes to pollution. Examples are
1) The decomposition of garbage usually produces materials which firstly become part of the environment by getting into the water, air, or soil.
2) The burning of garbage ceates smoke which contains ash and other possibly dasngerous materials. Initially the air becomes polluted. Then the airborne materials fall down into the water supply and soil.
3) Uncollected garbage can attract rodents, and insects like cockroaches, which can add to the problem by scattering the garbage around. This spoils the environment.
I hope the abov ecsan spur you and your brother to think about similar situations. As you have realised not many people are prepared to do somebody elses assignment, especially if the person is a stranger, for free.

OK, first of all, garbage means the thing that are no longer useful to you. Second, what is garbage to you may be useful to some one else.
Now, regarding how garbage involves in pollution: when you throw away you newspapers are garbage, it pollutes the environment. |However, if you give the newspapers for recycling, then it becomes useful again.
I can tell you a lot more things, but I think this would suffice in getting your cousin to start his/her project. I don't want to give you his/her whole work.
