A large portion of the population is convinced that we have turned into a "throw-away society" meaning people that contaminates the environment by filling it up with
plastic

bags and other rubbish. My essay will state my personal opinion on the topic. To start with, since the seventies the amount of
contamination
Use synonyms
has increased to a level
that is

become unsustainable. Not only we fill the oceans with all kind of garbage, but
also

the skies and land,
furthermore
Linking Words
we have become very dependant on
plastic

and all of its variants,
for example

, in the supermarkets the fruits and vegetables come wrapped in
plastic

,
in addition

to the
plastic

bags we use to store our purchase when we all know that a simple bag takes thousand of years without any alteration causing severe
contamination

. Do we need so many
plastic

bags? Of course not, but we still act like we cannot live without them.
Moreover

, while there is an increasing amount of awareness and people are recycling more,
this

is not enough. Large companies dump their products in the ocean without anyone trying to stop them causing severe damage to the ecosystem and killing thousands of marine species. Having a few recycling centres is not the only solution, people should demand more severe laws punishing
contamination

. In conclusion, while I am sure a small part of the population is not aware of the level of
contamination
Use synonyms
caused by throwing away all kind of stuff to our ecosystem I strongly agree that our society has gotten out of control with the
contamination
Use synonyms
. We should be more aware of the damage caused by
plastic
Use synonyms
and other stuff to the earth and try not to be so dependant on these products,
also
Linking Words
we should demand from our government to hard laws punishing any large companies that contaminate.
