In many countries people are living in a "throwaway society" where things are used for a short time and thrown away. What are the causes of this and what problems does it lead to?

The throwaway society is a common terminology today. It means
use
Suggestion
using
a product for a short period of time and
then
throw away even though its life span has not expired.
This
mindset has emerged due to many reasons and has lead to several problems. The main reasons for the throwaway society is that the products are available easily through e-commerce websites like amazon. These products are cheaper and offer better feature at a reasonable price and since people have more
dispoable
free or available for use or disposition
disposable
income today they don't mind purchasing.
For example
, My brother had bought
a
Suggestion
an
i-phone
Suggestion
iPhone
10 after a while
i-phone
Suggestion
iPhone
even
10x was released, my brother got excited about the new version, he got the product which had new features at a cheaper rate through amazon and so he threw away the old phone.
Also
,
surprsingly there

was no exchange policy offered by the company.
This
is a dreadful issue as it can lead to many cascading problems. The main problem when we throw away things is Recycling. The amount of plastics, e-waste and other wastes that are generated is immense and it is impossible to recycle these materials. Another impact is that these materials are disposed to a dumping ground, where it lies for years.
Such

materials, then
then
cause land pollution, which impacts the animals and humans residing near these dumping grounds. Some of the land pollution could
also
lead to water pollution.
For example
, there was
a
Suggestion
an
e-waste dumping ground near my previous apartment complex where a lot of people were diagnosed

with
cancer as they dealt with these e-waste.
Therefore one

Therefore, one
action can lead to cascading problems. To summarize, throwaway society is caused due to accessible and cheaper products,
also
due to the increasing disposable income. The impact of
this
is on the environment and animals including human beings. It is high time now that there is a shift or change in the mindset of the

society
so that people start using products until its life span.
Otherwise
the day will not be far when our own action would lead to our extinction.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
