Easter
is around the corner and all the fun with it will be here before you know it.
Though out the day, the family had numerous of bonding moments. These bonding
experiences include a day full of conversation and food.
After all the food, has settled in everyone’s stomachs, the cleanup
begins. the dessert and food containers are
emptied, the bottles/cans are
gathered together. Once
everything is straightened up, excess food is either taken home or dumped. What ends up getting dumped, includes all the disposable utensils and one
use of cookware.
According
to Toxics Action Center, in 2007, reported that each American discards an
average of more than 1,650 pounds of garbage every year, or approximately 4.6
pounds per person each day, nearly double the 1960 average of 2.7 pounds per
day. We as individuals are also making an effecting choice on the issue. An
example of this is here at Defiance College. Everyday countless students take
plastic or Styrofoam to go containers to class. These ends up in the trash.
Styrofoam does not degrade well and takes even longer than plastic. These
containers can leave a lasting impact on the environment.
There are numerous ways to fix this issue. Tune in next week to see some of the
ways to combat the trash problem on campus and in the world/community in
general.
I never have thought about all the styrofoam containers everybody uses/throws away! The only thing I saw grammatically was "full of conversation and food. " in between "and" and "food" there was an extra space, other than that good idea to have a continuation of "Anything" blogs!
ReplyDeletevery interesting I never really noticed this issue until it was stated.
ReplyDeleteGrammatically and structure everything seems ok nothing major other than what was pointed out.
