this

rubbish comes from the packaging from the things we buy,

generated. The reason why we have so much packaging is that we consume so much more on a daily basis than families did in the past. Convenience is

very important in modern life, so we buy packaging or canned food that can be transported from long distances and stored until we need it,

in the supermarket, and

then

at home.

However

produced is

a result of our tendency to use something once and throw it away. We forget that even the cheapest plastic bag has used up valuable resources and energy to produce. We

forget that it is a source of pollution and difficult to dispose of. I think,

, that governments need to raise

awareness in the general public. Children can be educated about environmental issues at school, but adults need to take action. Governments can encourage

action by putting taxes on packaging,

In some countries, small town-centre shops are going out of business because people tend to drive to large out-of-town stores. As a result, people without cars have limited access to out-of town stores, and it may result in an increase in the use of cars. Do you think the disadvantages of this change outweigh its advantages?

Consequently, more individuals tend to shop in larger suburban shops rather than urban retailers, leading to an increase car ueage and a decline in smaller urban stores. While some people look upon this trend as a positive progress, others view it as an overall negative development. From my perspective, the potential drawbacks driven by this tendency have outweigh the benefits, and the reasons will be thoroughly elaborated in the following paragraphs.
