This endangers marine life as they often mistaken small plastic pieces to be food. Modern consumers are more aware of social problems and “require that firms do not operate only in accordance…

This paper talks about how a person’s routine adds to food waste; the impact food waste has on nature; and the laws that prevented the shipment of food to the poor. Forty percent of all of America’s food ends up in the trash and is never eaten, this may seem surprising since Americans look like they are never at a loss…

than an airplane and that is ridiculous. Typical cruise ship with 3 thousand passengers would generate, 1 million gallons of gray water, 210,000 gallons of sewage, 25000 gallons of oily bilge water, 100 gallons of hazardous or toxic waste, 50 tons of garbage and solid waste, and diesel exhaust emissions. This would all equal to a thousand of cars on the highway and this is only one ship for a cruise line (treehugger). The government has set a standard to help with the environment for cleaner…
