Recently you noticed that the waste (garbage) disposal in your area is creating problems. Write a letter complaining about the situation to the environment officer. * The time of waste pickup. * What is the problem with the waste. * Suggest solution to the problem.

Dear Sir/ Madam

This

is Sahar Mokhtari, one of the residents in the area of Green Bay, California. I am writing

this

letter to inform you regarding the way the state disposes of the

waste

in my area of residence due to myriads of problems that it has caused for both citizens and particularly the environment. According to the statement that was declared by the

waste

-collecting company, residents have to keep their

trash

in large

garbage

bins that have been considered for each accommodation and transfer the bins to the sidewalk of the streets between 9-10 PM on Saturdays and Wednesdays every week, so that the

waste

disposal trucks would collect them after 10 PM and take all of the rubbish to landfills outside the city.

However

, there is a wide spectrum of insurmountable hassle in terms of

waste

collection that I would like to mention.

Firstly

, the trucks do not arrive on a frequent basis and most of the weeks, they just collect the

garbage

either on Saturday or Wednesday, not both.

This

issue has led to the accumulation of domestic

garbage

so much so that it does not fit into the bins anymore and individuals have to keep a part of their

trash

in plastic bags

next

to the baskets, rather than inside it. Animals like cats tend to tear down these plastic bags and the entire

neighborhood

is polluted by the scattered pieces of litter all over streets and alleys.

Secondly

, a medical clinic is

also

in the vicinity of some dwellings in my

neighborhood

Change the spelling

and the

waste

collection system of the contaminated

garbage

of

this

clinic is mutual with domestic

trash

.

This

, clearly, causes a lot of environmental problems both in the Green Bay area and in the landfill where normal

waste

is disposed of. I vehemently concede that your department must take urgent measures to address

such

trouble as soon as possible.

Trash

collection companies must be fined and warned to collect the

waste

according to the predetermined days and time to avoid the accumulation of too much litter where people and animals live.

In addition

, environmental organizations, like yours, must be held responsible to assign other places for getting rid of hospital and medical

waste

that can be extremely toxic and harmful for people's health and separate it from domestic ones to prevent the upcoming environmental upheavals. I am looking forward to your urgent steps. Kind Regards Sahar Mokhtari
