According to a study conducted at Cornell University, an estimated 3 million people die per year due to air pollution ("Pollution Causes 40 Percent Of Deaths Worldwide, Study Finds",…

In Phoenix, people just discarded glass in the dumpsters, and they have to go out of their way to recycle cans, which most people choose not to. Moving to Phoenix, from a city such as Washington, DC, which is it almost expected that you recycle, I found it very frustrated and hurtful to throw away things that can be used into something else. The City of Phoenix provides a couple of recycling drop centers,…

Too Much Talk, Not Enough Action Recycling is a push all around the world, especially in schools where people learn the true effects of the damage garbage is doing to the environment. In the Muhlenberg County School District in particular, the schools push recycling constantly, a few classrooms even have recycling bins set up. Eventually, these bins get filled, then what happens to the trash inside the bins? In early 2015 and some previous years, the recyclable materials went to the local…

dumps as waste instead of recycling them and making benefit of it. In addition, a lot of money could be saved through recycling. For example, factories could save a huge amount of money on manufacturing papers, toilet rolls, and cans by recycling them again and again.

Another issue that needs to be resolved is what to do with this…

They need to learn exactly what can be recycled and where to do it. Many teenagers that live in households that recycle don't…
