Waste Management (Paragraph.3) In the futuristic city of ours which is located in Hawaii, we have many ways of disposing our waste. For example: our electronic waste, we have a collection week twice a month, and we collect hazardous waste from local residences and others. This process is completely free and economic friendly. The electronic waste which is given will not be “wasted”, it will be used towards our robotic systems, which contribute to jobs that humans cannot do. For example, maybe a lego robot will contribute to our waste separator sensors which separate all of our types waste. Electronic waste could also contribute towards the radio and GPS and touch screen systems included with our solar powered eco friendly vehicles. And maybe …show more content…

Not only does that harm the environment with pollution and use of limited fossil fuels, but also on a more minor note, it fills our environmental surroundings with odor. Another problem is the lack of, reduce, reuse, and recycling. These are problems that can be easily addressed by taking one extra step. That one step which is putting something in your recycling bin instead of trash bag is a way that could contribute to our Earth not being contaminated with so much waste.

It is up to the residences to keep it at a limit, and depending on how much trash they put into the insertion, that will affect their bills, when they pay their taxes. This idea might seem like it deducts jobs from the trash workers we have today, but this will create another opportunity for them to receive a more interesting job which pays more, and it doesn’t require specialities. This job will be the manual sorting of trash by machine. Their responsibility will be to, look at every piece of trash that comes by, and on the screen choose whether it qualifies for reusing.

This takes place in the form of small vehicle engines, the noise that people make and lawn mower. All these are referred to as non-point source pollution.…

    Recycling is a good idea. Forcing citizens to be charged of not recycling right and having to pay extra for the garbage bins is more like stealing our money. No I don't think we recycle enough but, making it a law and forcing us to do it is not how you go along with things. Think about the citizens who are low on income, the ones who struggle to feed their kids. How would they be able to pay for those unnecessary bins?…

    It has come to my concern and attention that recycling should be mandatory in ISA. Americans make more than 200 million tons of garbage each year due to the garbage outburst that is not recycled. I personally believe that recycling should be mandatory in ISA because the EPA system averages out that 75% of the American waste stream of garbage is only 30% recycled which isn’t even half of it. Therefore ISA should go green and have recycle bins which then the recycled items will be processed to a recycling company. One of the reasons recycling should be mandatory is because it will protect wildlife from decreasing the risk of killing an animal from lake to sea, or from forest to rivers.…

    As landfills pile higher and higher, the entire earth is hurt by the pollution let out by the stacks upon stacks of garbage. There is a way to reduce the piles of used garbage bags full of rotten food, though; composting. A school of two-hundred students produces three-thousand pounds of waste from their cafeteria each year, over half of which can be recycled, greatly reducing how much garbage goes into landfills. Composting should be required in schools. It costs very little, can give students a great learning opportunity, and helps the environment.…
