Introduction Every year an average of 88,000 pounds of debris washes up on California beaches, and there is an estimated 3.5 million tons of trash in the Pacific Ocean alone. I know what you’re thinking, why does this matter to us? I had the same question, so I researched the topic and found a plethora of information from scientists and sailors alike. Today I will explain to you why the amount of debris is so unnerving and urge you to do what we can do to help clean this problem up. Body Need…

debris in this area is from human use, disposal, littering, dumping, etc. Most of the plastic actually comes from land and not ships, as some might assume. In fact, only about twenty percent of oceanic waste comes from ships. The main sources are manufacturing products, management of trash, and improper waste disposal (EPA, 2011). Through air and sea currents, any plastic item can become litter and eventually end up in the patch region. Plastic bags, often found in stores of every kind, are…

Hello and welcome to The Food Fad Show. Today we’re talking about food waste. Did you know that globally, we waste around one third of the food we produce. One third! Can you believe that? Here in the UK, we get rid of 7.2 million tonnes of food every year – more than half of which could be eaten safely. That’s enough food to fill Wembley Stadium … not once, but seven times per year. {Sound of audience reaction, e.g. “Wow!”} Host: Joining me here in the studio we have the Taylor family. A year…

pollution. Coastal fishing guide Mike Connor said, “his business is off 50 percent this year because of the algae blooms” (Guest 2015). The sugar fields are discarding waste in the surrounding freshwater watercourses and the contaminated water flows into the saltwater canals throughout south Florida from the levee runoffs. The rest of the waste is thrust into canals joined to both the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie rivers, sending numerous of hundred billion gallons a year of phosphorous laden…

use unnecessary plastic there would be less plastic and garbage around to worry about. People use and waste plastic so much that they do not even realize how much they are really using. Recycling is a huge thing because it can save so much waste positively and help our planet survive, society needs to stop making so much garbage and waste it is bringing the planet down. “We need to reduce waste and come up with new, biodegradable alternatives to plastic. But one of the easiest steps is changing…

The Clean Water Act has had many effects. One of the effects was the people of Michigan being able to see through 16 ft. of water, in Lake Muskegon, after the first modern recycling system was created to eliminate point discharges into the lake. The waste water management system piped the water from the lake, to an inland site where they stored, treated, and used the water to irrigate and fertilize crops (Sheaffer, pg.45). Making Lake Muskegon a good example of how effective the Clean Water Act…

Bottled water is taking up way to much space here in America. Wherever I go, I see bottled water, and I bet you every one I have seen went straight in the trash. America wastes all sorts of other products just to make a bottle that is most likely used for one day then tossed into the trash for good. Although we can save all this time, money and other products from being wasted by recycling, America chooses not to further the recycling process. Which leaves us at destroying the environment by…
