Write about the following topic: 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.

One of the biggest problems we are seeing nowadays is "
Garbage
". It is widely producing from human
day
to
day
activities and we can see trash everywhere from rural to urban. The
government
should take necessary steps to prevent
this
to build a healthy environment. The
first
and foremost reason for the rapid increase of waste is due to the usage of "use and throw" material that many people are using rather than the material that can be used multiple times.
For example
, nowadays, single-use of paper plates and glasses are being used a lot on several occasions like party or marriages. As there are hundreds and thousands of people gathered for
such
a party, a huge volume of
garbage
is collected the
next
day
.
Secondly
, producing
plastic
items
is very easy than making other metal
items
such
as steel and bronze and
plastic
is cheaper than other metals and
hence
many industries started producing more and more
plastic
items
and they are available for a low price.
Thus
, users are preferring to buy those
plastic
items
rather than metal
items
and
plastic
items
are not useful for longer usage causing tons of
garbage
.
For example
, 10 metric tons of
plastic
can be bought at a very low rate than the same volume of other metal.
Finally
, to control
this
increasing waste, the
government
should introduce new laws very strictly and create awareness on how the
garbage
is causing issues in society as well as the good things about using reusable
items
.,
Also
government
should impose more taxes on single-use
items
and encourage small industries which prepare multiple-use
items
.
For example
, if start-up companies are allowed for fewer taxes and other benefits and the current tax should be increased on the companies which make "use and throw"
items
. In conclusion, People are habituated to single-use
items
that eventually increasing trash everywhere,
i

I
show examples
would recommend the
government
should create awareness in the communities on one-time-use
items
and encourage them to use reusable products.
This
way we can reduce the wastage from our
day
to
day
life and that gradually decrease the amount of rubbish we produce.
