Many people today are worried about the large quantities of waste produced by ordinary households. What problems are caused by household waste, and what solutions may be possible in both the short and the long term?

In recent years, the amount of

waste

produced by an ordinary family is progressively increasing. Some people are concerned about issues associated with the large volume of rubbish

such

as detrimental effects on the earth and wild animals.

This

essay will explore the problems around

this

topic and provide possible measurements that can be taken to solve

this

issue in both short and long term perspectives. Producing a large amount of

waste

negatively affects the environment, contributing to the global warming and various types of pollutions all around the world.

This

is partly due to the overuse of the plastic products, which are not eco-friendly. When the plastic items are burned or filled on the ground, they produce toxic chemicals, which contaminate the air, soils and oceans.

Subsequently

, it affects not only human health, but

also

wild animals.

This

is just one small example of the negative consequences that originates in overproduction of left materials. Some measurements should be taken,

otherwise

the situation will deteriorate. As for a short-term solution, the government can introduce a tax on household wastage.

For example

In relation to the long-term objective, the government should organise awareness-raising campaigns through global conferences and educations in local communities

for instance

. People can be aware of

this

worsening situation and change their attitude towards the eco-friendly person,

consequently

minimising the amount of rubbish they produce. In conclusion, the

waste

minimisation is critical to save the environment and wild animals. Unless some actions are taken at higher level, the situation will only worsen,

therefore

, the government should implement regulations and awareness-raising campaigns to reduce the quantities of

waste

.
