Biodegradable waste like yard waste can be collected in a large land field and decomposed using modern facilities and used to manufacture compost which can be sold to farmers for planting. This implies that biodegradable waste can be recycled for other uses unlike non-biodegradable waste like plastics. On this note, Bill Nye advocates for the use of more biodegradable products and recycling of non-biodegradable waste so that the environment is saved from pollution. The non-biodegradable wastes liked papers and plastic bottles can be done away with by reducing, reusing and recycling them as the video states. The non-biodegradable should be dumped in a central place like bins in cities where they are collected in huge garbage trucks which transport them to recycling facilities.…

Is recycling worth while? Recycling can help prevent global warming and save plants and animals. Recycling can make the world a better place. First off there is global warming otherwise speaking the increase of the worlds temperature it was been a problem for many years and stopping it can help protect the future.…
I certainly do believe recycling amongst other forms of keeping the environment clean (waste, water, and energy) should be continued because of its long term importance. Moreover, I do agree that individuals should not have to worry about keeping the environment clean but I do not agree with the argument Jensen is trying to make on how industry is to blame. Regardless individuals would be to blame since we run industries and have control over emission use and keeping the environment…
In the text, “Earth Day,” Claudia Atticot and Alexandra Manning state “Americans use about 69 million tons of paper and paperboard each year.” Recycling or reusing one ton of paper could save approximately fifteen trees.” There are some who believe that Earth Day is not a necessity. However, Earth Day is still necessary and should be observed because Earth Day teaches people about environmental issues, recycling can make a difference, and Americans treat the environment poorly.…
I try to recycle as much as I can now, however, it is hard when you have very limited sources to help give back to the environment. In respect to the foods I consume, I recently learned to compost my leftovers, thanks to a friend for informing me of how I can make a change to this world even just by doing the littlest things. Also, keep in mind, I live on campus and eat at the dining halls so my food options are very limited and it’s harder to eat healthy and environmentally friendly foods since they provide the foods and it’s either you eat it or you…
Thus, recycling could save the environment from air pollution by preventing the burning of dumps and avoiding the chemical waste spread in the environment. Also, water pollution could be reduced by recycling and by preventing the throwing of dumps into oceans. This method would save our…
The choice to recycle leans on your belief whether it’s beneficial to the environment or just a waste of money and time. The benefits of recycling have been increasing…
Our paper and plastics can be renewed, reused, and recycled. Instead we eat things and just throw them on the ground without thinking where it will end up. Most of the time the wind blows the trash into drains which make their way to the ocean. This leads to ocean pollution causing harmful living to the animals who live there. For example, when we take plastic water bottles and throw them on the ground, we are hurting the life that depends on the ocean.…
Recycling food waste focuses on the environmental lense. Recycling food waste allows for people all around the world to create a more fertile soil for crop production, is affordable, and can be done by almost…
There are other steps which can be taken. There are some tips that can help people recycle. For example, don’t buy things you don’t need or avoid disposable products, designed to be thrown away. Lots of things can be reused. If you can’t reuse them yourself, try to find someone else who…
Recycling is good because it reduces the consumption of energy, decreases pollution, and conserves resources. On the opposite side it is very inefficient with the cost of how much it takes for somebody to recycle something, recycled products are always less durable, and changes have to be made on a large scale (Recycling Pros and Cons List, 2015). Overall, it is very evident to see that going green would be good in many aspects but it also would cost a lot in yet again many more…
How is plastic waste effecting the environment? According to studies conducted in 2013, an estimated three hundred million tonnes of plastic had been produced, this figure is a four percent increase from the same study conducted a year earlier. If the production of plastic was to increase by 4 percent every year, by the year 2040 plastic production will have increased to a frightening eight hundred and sixty-five million tonnes (Gourmelon, 2015). The serious consequences plastic waste is having on the environment, human population and animal life is severe. Predictions indicate, if plastic production was to reach the above number, it would see an estimated two hundred and sixteen million tonnes of plastic waste end up in landfill (Gourmelon, 2015).…
The more that we recycle we save the animals and the world from pollution. Recycling cuts down on trash and saves money. Most…
Recycling around the around has been implemented for more than a decade now, especially here in the United States. Recycling materials, such as plastic and aluminum, can help demonstrate a practical way in keeping the environment healthy and clean. People who accompany in this practice of recycling can change the outlook by encouraging others and future generations in saving the earth. In other countries, there are methods and policies in maintaining an orderly fashion to promote a sustainable community. While U.S residents are already familiar with recycling programs in the local regions, other countries’ recycling methods will be approached to better understand their ways to sustain the environment.…
