Have you ever imagined that Earth is no longer available due to pollution? As shown in Wall-E, people recognize that wastes can lead Earth to be unavailable for all lives because of toxic gas from wastes. In each day, tons of wastes are create, and they are disposed with vary disposal methods. Unfortunately, current disposal methods have limitations; landfill and incineration create harmful chemicals that pollute Earth. Even if people live only with necessity of life, wastes are still created and they needed to be disposed. Even though current waste disposal methods solve problems caused by wastes, they create another problem while disposing wastes. When disposing waste with current methods, wastes seem to be disappear, but they are …show more content…
Moreover, there is another limitation that recycling has: lack of motivation for people to recycle. Even though WM made recycling easy, not all people recycle. MassDEF (2002) states that people do not recycle because people are not motivated to recycle. As there is no specific reason to recycle, they do not use their time to recycle. These are the limitations that recycling have. To improve the first solution to disposing wastes, recycling, two things are suggested: motivate people to recycle and send e-wastes to WM. MassDEF (2002) suggests solutions to motivate people to recycle which is letting people "perceive effectiveness of recycling", "concern about the environment", give "social pressure", and provide "financial motive". If people know how recycling helps environment and what environment their child will live, they may have motives to recycle. Also, if WM price the wastes even as small amounts of money, then it may give people a financial motive to encourage people to recycle. If they do so, people still may not recycle, but there will be some people who collect recyclable wastes from roads or some other places to get little money. As people gather more wastes for recycling, significant amount of recyclable wastes that will be landfill will be reduced. In addition, there is a solution of problem of difficulty in recycling electronic
Recycling is presently one of the most controversial topics, considering that while most individuals put across their support regarding the act the number of individuals who actually do something in order to recycle is much smaller. Many people are currently unable or unwilling to recycle properly because the process often requires a series of changes in one's life. It is thus essential for the authorities to provide educational programs meant to assist individuals in understanding why recycling is important and in learning how to recycle effectively. People need to accept the fact that the benefits of recycling will reflect on the future and that conditions are currently critical as a result of the fact that the masses are generally unacquainted with the importance of this process.
Although many people lack concern over the removal of their garbage, as modern sanitation systems leave almost no trace of it whatsoever to the common individual; however, as the collected data supports, garbage poses a significant threat to the global environment, as pollution causes damaging consequences around the globe.
Preview of Main Points: First, I will explain the problem with not recycling. Next, the causes of the not recycling. Last, the solution and what we can do.
Did you know there is about a million pounds of material in order to provide one average middle-class American family 's needs for one year? In sum, Americans waste or cause to be wasted nearly 1 million pounds of materials per, and did you know that an average person waste is 4.3 pounds per day? Did you also know that the water in the lake and river have about 3 tons?

Outline Persuasive Speech Topic: Why recycling should be encouraged General purpose: to persuade Specific purpose: The speech aims to intimate people about importance of recycling and pursue them, that they should promote recycling. Thesis statement: It is advisable to promote recycling because: (1) It reduce the cost of energy to manufacture goods (2) it protects environment by less emission of pollution and less landfills. (3) It creates more job opportunism and helps fostering economy.
These days, our earth has been filled by a lot of waste. There is a lot of garbage, plastic waste, and electronic waste. We always produce it and dump it when we need the new one. Our waste are piling up and continuously accumulating. Plastic waste is one of the biggest problems for us now. And our solution in this problem is recycling. In my opinion, recycling is a way to manage used items into new products. We can reduce, reuse, and recycling (3R) waste management (Peter, 2013). We can reduce our waste clothes with reuse it. There are some reasons why peoples recycle used or unwanted items, which are, prevent wasting unusable materials that still have usage after recycled, reduce the application of raw materials, reduce energy
People Need to Recycle In the United Sates, where the population is inflated every year. The amount of space for landfills decreases every day. The need for recycling should not be asked, it should just be done out of habit. Everyone in America needs to recycle, to help the lamdfill problem, help the environment, and help produce new products from recycled goods. In America there is about two-hundred and eight tons of residential and commercial trash generated a year, 4.3 pounds per person a day (Prichard 1A). This is an overwhelming amount of trashed produced yearly. When people recycle this number can be drastically cut. But many people do not practice and use
There are some reasons for the problem. The first reason is that the effects of the thrown rubbish are very dangerous and extremely harmful. According to Miller (1987), global industrial organizations produce over 80,000 different chemicals (para. 5). Basically, garbage is old, dirty and wet, so that it is a perfect place for bacteria and other viruses to stay in. Rubbish growth in cities has been a problem all over the world for centuries. Landfills have always been regarded as sources of illnesses and unpleasant smells. The harmful wastes from the garbage spread through the ground from paint, chemicals, petrol, batteries, and other toxic materials that have been thrown away into the garbage. The toxic chemicals get into the water pipes and spread through the people’s drinking water. Another reason of that problem is that people have created all these disasters, which are connected with environmental pollution. The more modern technologies are created, the more unbelievable become wastes and remains of what is produced. From this, man is responsible for what he or she created and for the following consequences. Anxieties about the environment have made people more aware of their environmental footprints or the kind of waste they leave behind during their existence. The difficulty is that an average person leaves an incredible amount of wastes in his or her lifetime. According to Lovejoy (1912), all biodegradable substances, contained in
A.O. Coaker ,C.G.Achi, M.K.C. Sridhor, C.J.Donnett(2015) studied the current institutional solid waste management in a Nigerian private institution of higher learning. Using key informant as interview and personal field observations, the waste generation rate, pattern and characterization was made. It was concluded that if all the organic waste streams from the kitchens ,canteens and animal house are utilized for the bioenergy and organic fertilizer and non-biodegradables can be sold in the secondary market and considerable amount of wealth can be recovered
We, humans, are producing waste every day, polluting and destroying our planet. To save the world, many people believe recycling is the obvious solution. It is the process of converting certain waste into a reusable material. Therefore, the recycle motto is “Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle”. However, have you ever wondered why the word recycle is placed at the end? Well, it’s because it is not the only way to reduce waste and save the world from global warming. Recycling may have many advantages, but its disadvantages’ list is not a short one either. Recycling may look very simple and easy method, but when there is a need for a new unit of waste recycling, it takes up a lot of space. Not to mention the amount of money the building costs along with paying the staffs, buying new utility vehicles, upgrading the recycling unit and different types of chemical disposals. It is not only expensive but also, unhygienic, unsafe and unsightly with piles of waste materials on every location. These wastes spread infectious diseases putting human health at risk. Aside from recycling
Recycling is the best form of solutions to solve the challenges of e-waste because it enables the reduction of landfill space, less toxic material is released into the environment, and people are given the opportunity to buy electronic goods at a cheaper price since they are made from refurbished products. Among all other solutions to the challenge posed by e-waste, recycling is the best method that eliminates the environmental and health hazards that are caused by the disposal of untreated e-waste in the landfills.
Waste has been around for thousands of years, yet it still remains an issue today for countries to collect and dispose of waste effectively (Samah 1810). Managing waste has become a larger issue recently than it was in years past due to an increase of the world population. As a result of poor waste management, several issues have risen. Current methods of waste disposal, such as incinerators and landfills, have several downfalls associated with them due to the pollution these methods of disposal can cause. Another issue that is the result of poor waste management is electronic waste, which can leak toxic chemicals if not disposed of correctly. A third issue that is also associated with poor waste management is the Pacific garbage patch, a large collection of small plastic bits floating at various depths in the Pacific Ocean. One example of effective waste management is curbside recycling, which reuses unwanted materials and transforms the materials into new products.
The main objective of this report is to prove that there is a serious problem of toxic waste that we must address before it becomes something we cannot control. Also that there are feasible and suitable method to solve these problems such as recycling, physical or chemical reactions, high-temperature degradation, and biological degradation ect.
As a country develops the infrastructure for the country, must be established or develop at a rate fast enough to compensate for the countries growth. If the basic service infrastructure does not develop at a fast enough rate or is not established properly, people that are in poorer communities or of a lower class are over looked or mistreated in the way the service is constructed around them. One of the most visible ways this can be seen is the development of waste management facilities. Communities whose members are at an economical disadvantage tend to be where industrial and waste management facilities are created. This is a phenomenon known as Not In My Back Yard. This phenomenon is seen all over the world, one country that has had to deal with the establishment of an infrastructure in recent years is Brazil.
