Solid Waste Recycling In America

An issue that many young adults face today is the lack of understanding with managing money in an affordable manner. Being new to the workforce, these young adults oftentimes have low-paying jobs but try to live as if money is given rather than earned. As Daisy begins to assume the role of an adult, she falls into this category. She states, “The offers continue to come in the mail, and I buy a large,

Make sure she knows how much money she would actually get the next month. I would also include getting a loan which she could pay off monthly but at a reasonable amount. Her finances in general are crazy because she allowed her credit card to be used so much that she couldn’t pay for something when it became an

Moving back in with her parents was just a minor setback for her. It actually help her make a business plan, that she was able to talk over with her parents. They even agreed to front her some money to get started, but she wanted to earn her own portion first.

There are so many different ways our world can recycle ,The goal is to reduce the amount of waste ,

For mom, I reframed the word “hoarding” to collecting. Collecting is a work that doesn’t have a negative connotation.

Going green its great for the Country and it should be by choice not by law.Americans already recycle at high rate, we do not need a law pushing us beyond what we are already doing.

It is often thought that recycling isn’t very productive or effective. What this argument overlooks is that; “In the United States we generate enough trash to fill 63,000 garbage trucks that hold 9 tons of trash each. If we remove the recyclables we would need only 46,000 garbage trucks” (York 1). Since 153 tons of garbage is recycled and saved each day, it has proven to be more effective.

Recycling is one of the most common ways to keep America clean. The recycling bins are one of the most recognizable logos across the world. People all across the U.S. have recycling bins, inside of their household. The sad thing is most people do not use them, they most of the time just throw stuff in the regular trash that could be recycled. For example, plastic, paper, cans, glass, cardboard, and even computer hardware (www.recycleacrossamerica.org). People don’t realize that they could be doing the world a big favor, just by recycling these everyday items.

Since the 1900s, Americans realized the amount of waste they produce and the damage which comes along with it. Recycling is seen as a simple process to the average person. Items such as glass, plastics, aluminum, and paper are placed on the curb and or dropped off at recycling centers. However, many lack knowledge as to where their products go after this step. The recycling process is intricate, but crucial towards improving our environment.

The revenue from selling recyclables is inevitable. On the contrary, the 500 million dollars compared to the expenses of having to monitor every citizen's trash, wouldn't near compare. How many rules would there have to be just for some trash? As a fellow citizen, going out of my comfort zone for a piece of cardboard, is a little absurd.

Thesis: For us to be able to live in a clean and healthy environment we all including the companies mass producing the recyclables need to take recycling more seriously.

“We are living on this planet as if we had another one to go to,” By Terri Swearingen. Recycling has been a huge deal ever since we can remember. It benefits the economy, our earth and our lives. By recycling, we create millions of jobs for people who are unemployed and change the way we live to be happier and healthier human beings. Even though recycling is not cost effective, it will save the planet as long as recycling decreases pollution and impede global warming.

By recycling, people save half or more of the money they spend a year. An example is instead of buying a new case of water bottles every week, you can reuse them, which saves you more money that you can spend on things that you do need. In the article, the author stated, “Choosing sustainable materials for a product, streamlining the production process, and reducing the need for packaging all result in significant cost savings for the manufacturer.” This statement supports the fact that you should support recycling because it saves you money because the author explains that by recycling businesses save
