Persuasive Essay About Recycling Laws

Moving into the future, he said, the county will work with residents to identify proper use of the recycling bins and catch those who continue to violate. “We're going to work with the sheriff and the prosecutor to come up with a plan to start enforcing the law.”

The GatesburgGoGreen Initiative is a proposal to reduce the countries landfill amount by 90% over the next 5 years. An example of who uses this initiative are cities like San Francisco and Cleveland with much larger populations than Gatesburg. Some people believe this initiative is no more than an unnecessary and radical law. According to multiple sources, Americans already recycle at a high rate, which is about 95% of lead-acid batteries and 75% of steel cans and newspapers. In some people's opinions, this law only puts a burden on citizens who are already recycling at a normal rate by adding complicated rules such as different colored bins for certain items. If the law

In as little as five years with the proposed laws, the city of Gatesburg would minimize their added waste almost entirely. The law is simple and easy to follow, it would take a great amount of stubborness to not abide and agree in favor of the law. In regards to those benefits the city also will follow the example of Phoenix, Arizona, which has made more than 500 million dollars a year by selling it's recyclables.

There are though some problems that would come with this proposal. The GatesburgGoGreen Initiative would place strict laws on what residents can and can not put inside of each bin. The initiative proposes that fines will be placed on citizens who do not adhere strictly to the rules of what can go inside of each bin. Also, each bin is equipt with a radio-frequency identification computer chip, which will weigh each bin, and compare how much waste is placed in the recyling bins, versus the trash bins (waste that will go to the county landfll).

Debates in Gatesburg, arguement over having a initiative propossed by enviormental groups. Studys show that recycling rates in the America rate up to 95% of lead-acid battaries and 70%of steel cans and ect.

Well first off i'm all for recycling more but making it a law would be going to far in my option. The three tash can idea is to much if you ask me. Food an normal trash should be in one can and recyclables she be in another. If its a law and someone messes up then they get a ticket for putting the wrong thing in the wrong trash can. Because if you have three cans that will probley end up confusing for some poeple, like older men and women.

I don't think I should recive a fine just because I throw old food in the garbage. No Recycling Laws for Gatesburg states that, "Americans already recycle at a high rate, which is around 95% of lead-acid batteries and 70% of steel cans and newspapers." Which I personally think is wonderful. So why force people to do even more? Many people will be so used to doing things one way, that if you make it a law to do it another you are setting them up to break the law and be fined. And I don't think that is fair at all. Not only would it be unfair to fine people for not composting or recycling, but it would also increase taxes to pay for all of the services and personnel as stated in paragraph two of No Recycling Laws for Gatesburg. Therefor I do not agree with the Going Green for Gatesburg flyer. I beleive they have the best intentions but I don't think any community is ready for laws requiering citizens to compost or recycle. Maybe at some point in the future it will be as good idea, but as of right now I do not think it

On the proposal to go green. The gatesburg Go Green: Invites all citizens to partisipate on recycling, and to add more landfill by almost 90% for over the years to come.The citizens should have three trashcans,and althoulgh Purchasing bins and hiring staff will cost money and can be chalenging. It will be for a good cause. The goal is to have less trash and more land for the next generation and to reduce trash.

Although both passages introduce good arguments, I am undecided about witch one I shall agree with. The first one seems as if the GatesburgGoGreen Initiative is a very good ideal. As the second points out all of the major flaws in the Initiative. In my person opinion the initiative is a little ridiculous, and heres why. The fact remains that we already recycle. 95% of lead and 70% of steel. If you ask me then I think we are doing a dman good job. The entire initiative seems like its being forced, you will be given 3 trash bins for different items. Who wants to have 3 trash cans in there home to sperate the trash. And on top of that, as I take a statement out of the second article, what happens when someone makes a mistake and puts the wrong

Recycling and trash is not a problem that has newly been raised in society. Trash, recycling and its removal has been in history for centuries. As long as humans in society consume, there will be the remainder of something that humans see as trash. Society holds a different perspective on trash and recycling that varies from society, culture, tradition and way of life. A matter of perspective of some incidents review that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure and if one wastes not, they want not. Rural trash pickup is limited in the state of Iowa for numerous reasons that will be discussed within this project, as well as how rural individuals deal with no trash pickup. The heated argument of some of

While recycling aluminum cans, newspapers, and lead-acid batteries is a good start I feel we do need to do more recyling, but without the fear of being fined, ticketed, or having our trash ouput tracked. For example if we have family over for a reunion and they dont know the proper laws or ways to recycle and end up just throwing things in the wrong bins with nobody seeing them. Then come trash day and we roll our bins out like a normal day, but because the radio-frequency chip on the trash bin is heavier than normal and the recycle bin is on the light end would we be fined? City officials wont know why our trash was bigger than normal, they will just see the rise in numbers and issue a ticket.

Imagine walking down a forest path, feeling the crisp fall breeze, hearing the birds chirping, breathing in the fresh air. The earth's environment is wonderful and as stewards of this plant, it is every human's job to protect and even enhance its beauty. Dumping incinerated garbage into a hole in the Earth is not exactly being a good steward. However, science has developed the technology of recycling, and people should use this blessing as readily as possible. In other words, everyone should recycle, and if they won't do it on their own, recycling should become a requirement. Recycling should be mandatory because it helps minimize pollution, conserve energy, preserve natural resources, and create jobs.

We should all be living in a clean world and that is why a large part of the society recycles.

Plastic bag recycling would bring great benefits to our planet earth, but it takes the support of citizens to promote this. A town "Gulftowne" (Jones 1) is being persistantly serious about making it mandatory to have shoppers use reusable bags in place of plastic and or paper bags. First of all, by using "reusable shopping bags" (Jones 1) it would majorly help by avoiding some of the littering and threaten of wildlife. Second of all, the "Cutting down trees to make paper greatly dimishes our forests" (Jones 2). However, "Gulftowne rely on tourists to make a living." (Jones 7) and did not think beyond the grocery stores when considering this proposterous ordinance. In addition to this, the price and maintence needed to keep up with reusable bas would have to be taken into consideration as well.

Taking out the trash in Penelope has been a problem for most of the citizens for some time now. Penelope is a small town with a population size of 198 people; it is located twelve miles east of the city of West in Hill County. I recently attended the city council meeting that was held on June 21, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. in the volunteer fire department building. I went there to observe the claim that some of the citizens of this small town were making about the trash problems they are having. The citizens are claiming that they have very unpredictable trash pickup times and they have no way to dispose of large items and yard debris. I decided to go to the meeting because this is something that not only affects me but my community as well.
