Nowadays we are producing more and more rubbish. Why do you think this is happening? What can governments do to help reduce the amount of rubbish produced? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience
Produce of garbage is increasing every single day.
This
is happening mainly because of the increase in the usage of the items
that are not recyclable. Items
such
as plastic
are used widely which people
use
and throw as it is of no use
later. In this
essay, I will examine the reasons for an increase in the amount of rubbish
produced and the steps that need to be taken by the people
in power to reduce its production.
Firstly
, the main reason for rising garbage is due to the number of plastic
that is
being used on a daily basis. For example
, in Singapore when we shop groceries from a supermarket, the items
are packed in several plastic
bags
. These plastic
bags
are thrown after unpacking the items
. The authorities should come up with an alternative to plastic
bags
such
as Jute bags
or a carry bag that is
made of some kind of cloth material. In addition
, the authorities should create awareness and encourage people
to use
recyclable items
more.
Secondly
, the wastage of food
-items
accounts for the increase in rubbish
being produced daily. For instance
, when we are in a restaurant, we order more than what is sufficient and end up wasting food
. and the food
often goes into d
ustbin. In Add an article
the
a
such
a case, the concerned ministry should create a team to collect the left-over food
from the restaurants so that the food
can be utilized in a meaningful way. Furthermore
, people
from developed countries use
a lot of paper towels in their domestic work which can also
be replaced by other materials that can be recycled. All in all, the government should take decisive steps to reduce rubbish
by increasing the tax on the items
that cannot be recycled and should promote natural ways of reducing rubbish
.
In conclusion, people
should realise the mistakes and obey the orders of the government in reducing the amount of garbage that is
produced daily. Innovative methods and creating awareness will play a major role in this
process.Submitted by niranjan.appaji on
