living by changing her lifestyle in order to reduce the amount of waste she produces. In the past two years, Singer has produced such a minuscule amount of trash that it can all fit inside a small mason jar.

gasses and pollute lands and civilizations, in the case of dump sites. This problematic cycle goes deeper than what is seen on the surface, the whole process of manufacturing is affected by the way we rely on the industrial complex we know as the waste industry. Our lust for over indulgence and dependency on oil has fostered bad habits which, in turn, shapes the way producers…

the economy of many countries in good and bad ways. Industrial by-products, poisonous pesticides, and nuclear waste all have to go somewhere. In most cases, a country can not safely contain substances in order to not contaminate or endanger their people and environment. To avoid contamination, countries ship away by-products to more technologically advanced countries. New imported waste can be beneficial…

Waste recycling is a process to change renewable waste materials into products in order to prevent waste of useful materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution and also reduce water pollution. It is not unusual to say that if natural resources are recklessly used one day for sure it will come to an end.

Every factor in an ecosystem depends on each other, either directly or indirectly. That area consists of plants, animals, the weather, landscape and other organisms and they work together to form a bubble of life. A change in temperature will affect how plants grow, while animals depend on those plants for food and shelter. These changes will force those animals to either…

Food waste is a topic nobody really talks about. It is even possible to say that not a lot of people are even aware of these issues. Every year 1/3 of the annual food production is thrown away in the garbage just to end up in a landfill. That’s 20 lbs of food per month; that’s basically money in the garbage. Perfectly good, edible, food is being thrown out and wasted. Countries around the world have people who are dying of hunger and here we are throwing edible food away. There has to be…

Smokers don’t think throwing their cigarette butt out the window or dropping it on the ground is littering, but it counts for 50% of…

know that increase has a lot to do with the growing population around the world. Yet, as we continue to grow in numbers of people, we also continue to lack a sufficient amount of natural resources to go around as well as places to absorb all of the waste we create. We have been given natural resources that can be taken for granted so easily because we never think of what life will be like when they’re gone. We have never had to live in a world without them so we need to learn, globally, how to…
