Therefore, this presentation shall cover each of these topics in order to identify which method of disposal, theoretical or already in practice, would be the most efficient, and if it isn 't already used, a reason for why not.

    I certainly do believe recycling amongst other forms of keeping the environment clean (waste, water, and energy) should be continued because of its long term importance. Moreover, I do agree that individuals should not have to worry about keeping the environment clean but I do not agree with the argument Jensen is trying to make on how industry is to blame. Regardless individuals would be to blame since we run industries and have control over emission use and keeping the environment…

    There is a simple bottom line to it all which is Reduce, Reuse, Recycle which will all hand in hand help in the dilemma of Global Warming. Reduce would be the reduction of the amount of energy we use or maybe even water we use which will in turn reduce the use of fossil fuels to provide such amenities. Reuse would refer to the reuse of resources that we currently have such as energy that is renewable or maybe something as simple as the reuse of a plastic container so that making another one for one’s use is eliminated. Recycle would pertain to the recycling of recyclable goods such as plastics, papers, and metals where it is possible to reduce the production of these things which results in the release of GHG’s. If the population of the world adopts the Reduce, Reuse, recycle plan there will be a drop in GHG’s hands down because GHG’s is result of those actions not being…

    My position on the issue of whether or not recycling and composting initiatives such as the one described in the flyer should be adopted and put into practice in communities throughout the United States is I am for it. There should be laws you should have to follow to recycle. If there were no laws about recycling we wouldnt have as many things to use and there would be a lot more trash everywhere. People should always recycle and put all paper products into one bin and all plastic and other products in another.…
