Recycling And Its Effects On Our Environment

we’re wasteful. In order to find solutions for our trash problem, we must first admit that we are

Take a moment to imagine the realization that a young boy came to when two of his favorite movies had a large plotline that was somewhat based on the problems of trash. Wall-E, the famous Pixar movie, was based on a small robot that was left behind on Earth’s surface alone. His job was to clean the garbage that the human population left behind when they went into space to escape their problems. Toy Story 3, another Pixar movie, contained a scene with garbage that was vital to the plot, in which the characters are rescued from a trash furnace that was consuming literally tons of trash a minute. These two movies tried to make the American population aware of the ever growing trash situation, however, Americans quickly forgot about the Earth shattering situation that they are causing. The solution to the world’s trash problem is easy; people need to be educated on the problems of trash and given an easy way to fix it. People should be required to visit a landfill, educated on the severity of the trash problem, and should be rewarded for changing their habits to improve the problem.

Undoubtedly, as we are stepping towards advancement with technology every day, we are getting exposed to more pollution levels in our life. Water, air and earth, in all these forms of society we are experiencing rapidly growing pollutions. In water, we are experiencing a huge number of unwanted disposals of all sorts from the cruise ships or any private boat. A lot of people now a days doesn't have any idea where to dispose proper wastes. For example, if we go to a grocery store like Walmart or Target, we see big trashcans with it's purpose written on it. There are certain trashcans that are only meant for plastic disposing while some of them are for recyclable objects. People need to educate themselves with this basic things. Not only these, if we look at the bigger picture, in third world countries, earth or soil pollution is one of the major environmental problems. People throwing garbages everywhere on the side of streets, urinating on the side of the street, spitting everywhere are the major habits people are having over the years.

“We throw out about 254 million tons of solid waste per year in America alone” for comparison that is about 1.27 million average sized blue whales. That is a ton of trash! But, as Americans we do not see all this trash. We barely even touch it. It is all pretty much taken care of for us. So the trash is sort of out of sight out of mind. Let me put this into some

Imagine a world cluttered with trash, once beautiful beaches and parks now overflowing with garbage. Roads no longer driveable, air no longer clean. Masks will be worn, and disease is on the rise. Now, imagine if you could have prevented this. I believe recycling is the first step. As of 2006 America is in the lead for producing the most waste, producing 236 million tons annually. Not only are we producing the most waste but by 2100 scientists estimate the amount will triple which will have serious effects on the Earth. Both physical effects and fiscal which means public services and government budgets will be impacted. Our planet is already feeling the effects of pollution at the rate we're going we won't be able to stop the damage nor repair

Trash is a material that is wasted or disposed of the sources of human activities and natural results that do not have economic value. Garbage comes from households, farms, offices, companies, hospitals, markets, et cetera. Waste is divided into organic waste or wet waste like kitchen waste, restaurant waste, the remaining vegetables, and spices, including the rest of the fruit that can naturally decay. And inorganic waste or dry waste like metal samples, iron, tin, plastic, rubber bottle that cannot decay naturally.

The current waste management in America should be improved. There is trash everywhere, and people do nothing about it. People are destroying our beautiful country with trash. Sure, our garbage and recycled materials are picked up once a week, but no one is worried about the trash that is just sitting there. People look at trash and do nothing about it. They walk by it like it was a squirrel or something. People should help pick it up and throw it away. It’s super simple. Just pick it up, and find the nearest trash can and then put in there. It’s that simple. The current should and needs to be fixed.

Increased recycling means less trash entering landfills. The greatest environmental benefit of recycling is the use of energy and natural resources when old materials are used to make new products. Many consider recycling an easy task. Products that become garbage have an effect on global warming, which makes recycling as a viable option. The phrase ‘Reduce, Reuse, Recycle’ was coined to promote recycling and a clean environment. Recycling is a simple way in which people can contribute to making a better world. It takes time and effort to collect, separate and send trash away. Recycling effects every aspect of our environment—homes, schools and hospitals.

Trash. It’s everywhere, and people just throw everything into one big pile of it at a disgusting landfill. There is a solution to this problem, recycling. Recycling is the best way to reduce the pollution associated with incineration, costs of landfills, and also preserve natural resources.

There are many ways people could start fixing the world's trash crises, we just have to start making the necessary contributions instead of being the lazy humans that we are. The simplest and most effective way of getting rid of the access trash that we built up is to recycle it, separate your garbage into plastics, paper, metal, and glass, and bring it to your local recycling plant. There they will take the trash and turn it back into the raw material that is used to make more products. They reuse the waste instead of adding it to the massive landfills. However this does bring up some issues. Recycling plants create their own greenhouse gases and use up energy, but is it far less energy than creating new. According to stanford, manufacturing recycled aluminum takes ninety five percent less energy to create that greating it new. That means that recycling is faster, so it takes less energy, therefore it creates less greenhouse pollution. So do your part and recycle.

The increase of garbage creates issues for humans. For humans throwing away something every day is a daily routine. Due to the amount of trash produced every day it is seen as an issue because one person could make at least seven pounds of garbage increasing the landfills mass. The reasoning for recycling is to manage the waste humans produce. Waste buildup makes landfills larger in size making water pollution and air pollution more likely to become higher. The environment has been neglected with the amount of clutter, this causes little space in landfills. Landfills increase

My main concern about waste disposal is toward poverty. In every society, for it to work effectively the waste disposal has to be handled properly. The lack of proper waste disposal can contribute for the underdevelopment of the community. For instance, in poorer community that does not have resources to dispose of the trash properly create a series of problems. For example, when there are a lot of trashes in a community, it will prevent investors to invest in a community, the housing market, schools and stores will decline, in consequence the houses will loose its value. This will create a ripple effect because people will start immigrating toward a better place where it is much cleaner. Families will try to move to a better place where their kids can have a better future. I ask myself who wants to live in a dirty environment? I hope nobody. That’s why I believe that the government should help the poorest communities about the ways to handle waste disposal, and better educate them about recycling.

Recycling is a process where waste materials are transformed into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling) by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to plastic production.

American citizens throw away millions of tons of garbage each year, and this trash has to go somewhere. While there are projects underway to clean and reuse this refuse most of it gets dumped into huge landfills. These landfills are disgusting festering blisters on our country's landscape. But people continue to consume and throw away more and more in the name of convenience. As they see it, when things get old, throw it away and get a new one. They blame the government for the trash problem, but the truth blame should be placed on themselves.

One of the most recognized and important benefits of recycling is conserving natural resources. Natural resources are the major reasons why the humanity has still survived on Earth, which is why we need to conserve as much as possible. Most people are aware that the main purpose for recycling is to conserve resources, but not many people take it seriously. They do not realize how big of an impact recycling can actually have, so they do not pay much attention to it. Though this is not the case with recycling. If everybody can contribute to recycling, no matter how small the contribution, it will be a huge
