I picked the social norm that people take away their water bottle, popcorn corn boxes or boxes people use when eating food or snacks at any types of shows or sport events. I picked this social norm because many people believe that it is rude to not to take away their trashes after a show, and I agree with this belief. However, there are numbers of people who do not follow this social norm, we can simply see them after a certain event for example: after every University of Arizona football home…

Discharge from both Lynn and Swampscott enter King’s beach at the Stony Brook outfall. This discharge includes both stormwater and wastewater. In 1991, secondary treatment of wastewater became optional in Lynn, so the wastewater that runs into the waters and sand at King’s beach is not likely to have received secondary treatment. Bacteria counts fail to meet standards for both ambient water quality and are higher than allowed for safe swimming. Further, the stream that runs across the beach is…

Mt.Everest is the tallest mountain on earth. It is 29,000 feet tall and 5 and ½ miles long. Mt.Everest was formed 60 million years ago. There are 10,000 people who tried to attempt to climb Mt.Everest and left behind garbage. There is so much garbage about 10 tons still littering the slopes.

For my Tuesdays with Morrie project, I made waves of the ocean crashing into the shore with poster board and a lot of construction paper. Boarded by construction paper, I have ten aphorisms. The idea for my project was about the time that Morrie compared himself to a small wave seeing the waves ahead of him crash along the shore, and the wave knows his time will come to crash on the shore as well. Morrie compares him to the wave realizing that his death is coming upon Morrie just like…

to its waste system, and new recycling centers are opening next year. In neighborhoods with limited waste services and open trash piles, it is no surprise trash is scattered throughout the environment. “Waste is just a misplaced resource” ~Ken Dunn. Trash disposal is a difficult problem. Waste consists of organics, single-use packaging, biomedical products, electronics, durable goods, paper, plastic, glass and aluminum.

wildlife. While many different types of trash enter the ocean, plastics make up the majority of marine debris. There are two reasons: Firstly, plastics are durability and low cost. As a result, plastics usage is rapidly being increased in consumer and industrial products. Secondly, plastic goods do not biodegrade but instead break down into smaller pieces through sunlight. This process is also known as photodegradation. Plastic consumption will lead to insufficient stomach storage to marine…

Our water sources are becoming toxic due to the waste, and with the amount of toxic water there is, we won’t have any extra clean water available for…

There’s Something in the Water Relaxing on a beach or fishing on a river are fun activities. The water always looks clean and fresh. No one wants to look across the ocean, lake, or river, and see candy wrappers and plastic particles. Unfortunately, New Jersey waterways, specifically the ones in northern New Jersey, have been plagued with an abundance of plastic. This is a major problem that needs to be fixed is the contaminated waterways because they cause problems. The plastic pollution in…
