All the garbage that we humans produce on a daily basis has been bothering me for awhile now. I mean we all go to fast food places daily, and with just one meal, you get some cardboard, paper, styrofoam and most likely a large plastic cup for your soda. Now 90% of the time all this goes in the garbage can. Just one fast food restaurant produces several large bags of garbage on a daily basis.
I feel this is a big problem, but no one seems to be alarmed about it except me. It seems we all just go around, dum de dum de dum, and accept this as just a fact of life. Just the other day, I was listening to public radio and it was mentioned that one of the contributors to Global Warming is land fills.
Not to mention how many trees are sacrificed each day in order to feed this crazy pattern.
Recycling is one answer, but right now it’s more the exception than the rule, I feel.
My questions are: Why isn’t anyone else, ie someone political, concerned about this issue?
What is the solution? What can one person, little old me, do to help solve this problem?
