Some people claim that not enough of the waste from homes is recycled. They say that the only way to increase recycling is for governments to make it a legal requirement. To what extent do you think laws are needed to make people recycle more of their waste?

The statement brings forth an argument that
waste
recycling from homes is inadequate and that the
government
should intervene with stringent legal guidelines to address the same.The moot topic under discussion would have me strongly agreeing
to
Suggestion
with
the argument.
Although
,according to few it is debatable if the onus solely rests on the citizens and that by-laws formulated by the
government
,if not adhered diligently, could necessitate uncompromising consequences,my essay would advance tangible and rationale points to validate the stance as I completely agree that people should spontaneously take part in recycling process and that
government
should impose laws and severely fine the violation of it to ensure proper
waste
recycling without any digression.

essay would discuss the viewpoints with pertinent examples/terse references and cogent/succinct anecdotes.
First
,
waste
recycling is governed by the
government
via

Accept comma addition
state, municipal
corporations and citizens are expected to neatly segregate the recyclable and non-recyclable wastages and pack them
accordingly
before dumping them in trash bins. They are expected to cooperate greatly in the recycling process.There is a wide range of services and facilities to recycle domestic
waste
.
Nevertheless
, reducing the volume of
waste
going to landfill sites, recycling and composting our domestic
waste
helps to minimise charges for
waste
collection.Most of the items used in homes can be recycled. The benefits of recycling include a cleaner
environment
, the safe disposal of hazardous materials, greater awareness of excess packaging and a careful approach to the use and re-use of materials.
However
, it is a strange fact that many people do not participate in it spontaneously either from their negligence or from their lack of time to do so.
Thus
, it is a harsh truth that people in many cases abide by a rule only from the concern of punishment or fine, not from their conscience.
For instance
, when the penalty for traffic rule violation went up, people started following them in my city.
Similarly
, if laws are introduced and the authority starts
penalizing
Suggestion
penalizes
is penalizing
, more people would recycle more of their wastages.
Secondly
,
waste
recycling is a very handy process to save our
environment
and we already have many rules to protect our
environment
. While deforesting is a severe crime in my country, there is no
such
profound awareness for public on recycling the
waste
to conserve
environment
Suggestion
the environment
or its consequences are never been highlighted.. The student in the schools should be educated on the rewards of maintaining the
environment
. All the stakeholders like citizens
,
Accept space
,
local governing bodies should take utmost care on adherence to regulations. Fines should be levied at all levels to control digression.To cite an example
to
Suggestion
of
this
reference
,
Accept space
,
the instance that

come to pass
occurred
in Holland is worth mentioning…….. In conclusion, most of the citizens in our country already know about the importance of saving the
environment
and how individual efforts of recycling can improve environmental conditions. Since many of them still do not participate in
waste
recycling, there is no alternative than to impose laws to have
this
done.
In addition
the stakeholders should work collaboratively to ensure regular
waste
recycling to avoid deleterious environmental conditions.
