Many people say that we have developed into a 'throw away' culture, because we are filling up our environment with so many plastic bags and rubbish that we cannot fully dispose of. To what extent do you agree with this opinion and what measures can you recommend.
In
this
present world, some believe that many plastic
bags and rubbish are being accumulated that we cannot fully dispose of and this
let to the development of a "throwaway" culture. I completely agree with this
. In this
essay, I will discuss the reasons for this
opinion.
To begin
with, we are using more and more plastic
products
and commodities that we won't be able to use the second
time
. For instance
, the usage of plastic
bags in retail stores and department stores is really high. In addition
, the materials that some products
use like plastic
are hard to recycle so they will remain in the environment
for a very long time
. This
shows that we have more rubbish to throw out these days due to the short lifespan of these products
. Therefore
, we are producing more garbage these days that are being accumulated in the environment
and damaging our habitat.
Lastly
, the best solution for this
issue is to involve the government to push policies and legislations that protect the climate. For example
, some European countries such
as Norway and Portugal have been doing the same thing and the results of their rigid policies can be seen in various studies. Moreover
, the government should encourage companies to produce commodities that are more durable and more friendly to the environment
by awarding them for their efforts. Thus
, with government intervention, the amount of rubbish produced will be decreased and this
can give time
for nature to recover.
To conclude, the main cause of the accumulation of garbage in our time
is the mass production of products
that are not friendly to the environment
. In my opinion, in our culture immense consumption of damaging materials to nature became a part of our culture. Given the current circumstances, I anticipate that governments of other countries will be more involved in this
matter.Submitted by tsp10majidi on
