Recycling: What do people do in your area?

More and more cities, governments, and individuals are becoming concerned about protecting our environment and resources. However, for the individual citizen, what do people in your area do (or DON'T do) to recycle at home. Personally, we collect our newspapers for the week and take them to a local school down the street where they collect them for recycling. Furthermore, we also put some of our leftover food (e.g., banana peels, egg shells, vegetables, etc.) outside in a special box that turns the scraps into soil for our garden.

So, what about you and people in your area? What can we do more to protect our future?

  1. Not many people in my area are concerned about recycling, so there are not many opportunities to be concerned even if you want to. For example, the schools collect paper for recycling only twice a year and not with a big enthusiasm. And to find another place where to take newspapers or other things for recycling is difficult. Though, we have special machines for used plastic bottles everywhere. I've never seen anybody except alchoholics and homeless people using them, but I do use)) Plus in our dacha we also have a special box for compost.

    1. I believe that the issue of recycling is a topic of importance that has been placed among us since a long time ago, since it would bring the benefit to our environment to our environment, so the recilclage should be used by all of us, so we will collaborate together , I think we should take the step personally and then invite the people around us, I think the most productive activities would be talks, expositions to all ages and communities of that topic. this is only my opinion, of course I have the due respect for their ideal. Thank you

    3. I think that recycling is something important, but many people are not aware of the importance of it. only people like ecologists, or homeless people or some who are aware of this, recycle. But the rest do not care and do not know the consequences that can not recycle.

  2. Here in town, Ciudad Juarez,we don't have a specific plan, we can recycle the garbage, in organic,inorganic,plastic,aluminium,etc...,and some places do, is a culture.
    We can save energy turning off the lights that we are not using, I don't know we need take action about this concern. The planet is our enviroment,is all we have,is our home, the global warming for example is the red light now, we need to be aware and take big actions.

  3. To save the environment, I try to buy some stuffs that are made of materials which does not ruin the nature. For example, I do not buy plastic stuffs.
    I also have Recycle Bags for shopping.
    The other thing that I do, is to reduce using washing machine;I collect all cloths and wash them together at once.
    seprating garbages and puting them into the proper bins is another thing that I do.Moreover, instead of consuming paper towels for cleaning, I try to use fabrics. I collect glass bottles and turn them into decorating peices for my dining table.These are the methods that I try to do personally to keep the nature alive.

  4. Here in Brazil, ordinary people like me are getting more and more concerned with the protection and preservation of our local environment. We have some special bins/trash cans usually located on the premises of buildings and of other public places such as shopping malls and resturants. Each can is for a specific type of material, which, of course, can be taken to a special place to be recycled.

  5. I don't know how wide this area here is recommended. For I am a student, I'll focus mainly on my university. As far as I'm concerned, there's been improvement in protecting the environment, but still not much in recycling. There're even people having no sense of this activity. I hope in the future, there'll be more positive changes.

  6. The recycling is an important issue, should all people become more care about it. In my country there are special companies collecting these materials, they have distributed containers with special colors in the public stores like Malls, supermarkets, in addition to the parks as kind of promotion In order to make these things familiar for the people. I think we should all support this job because we will save a lot and gain a lot.

  7. No recycling center has been founded near our university.We do not konw where we can send the useful recycling materials.I think many people in my university still need education about how to collect the recycling materials.Most of them even don't konw what are the recycling matrials and they just throw away them whenever they want.This is a big problem for us.In my opinion, society, government and citizen should pay attention to the recycling and cooperate together to solve this problem so that our children can have a bright, beautiful and clean future.

  8. Recycling isn't popular, especially in third world countries. If the aim is to penetrate through the minds of those living in developed countries, to recycle more and still no substantial change, how do we reach out to those in the poorest countries who have more things to worry about than their environment?! I think there's a geographical aspect to this question that, in reality, will be hard to solve.

  10. Recycling is a beneficial process, that could conserve our environment. However, not all of us could understand the impotence or this mechanism in our time. However,some people care of our surroundings by digging domestic waste, besides plastic things. Moreover, some of them gather & sortie plastics,glasses& papers in special cans.

  11. First before talking about recycling to protect the environnement we need to use less packaging, produce less polluting cars and then we can talks about recycling.
    Because it's the firm that polute more and after it's the citizens.
    However, hich person must take the environnement into account on a daily basis.

  12. Solar panes can reduce the price of electricity, heating and hot water. More and more people are interested. But the solar material is very expensive. It is ecological because it reduce the greenhouse effect. It is a profital for industrie. If the compagny use this material, it is good for the earth. It is a new trend.

  14. Personaly, I am in favour of recycling. It is important to sort out products to reduce pollution and save money. However, I think that people are not aware of the problem of the planet. That's why they should be have to be more prevention. But,a problem remain : people have difficulty to change their behaviour.

    More and more people think of the protection of the planet. More and more companies invest money to develop eco friendly systems. As far as I am concerned, I make efforts to collect and select the waste. I think that there should be more organisations which protect the environment or giving the other organisations more money to promote their campaign.

  16. Car-pooling, recycling are a good idea to protect our environment. I think that we should reduce the amount of waste and people should feel concerned. People should save energies, raw materials to reduce the greenhouse effect, water pollution, air pollution and so on.

  17. We all know that the global warming results from environmental pollution. For goverments, they have their own ways to solve this issue. As far as I'm concerned, the individual citizen's awareness is very important to protect our environment. In my family, my mother usually uses two kinds of wastebin, one for garbages like plastic bags, bottles, cans and one for organic garbages like vegetables. Such division does not take us alot of time and we easily take them to places to be recycled.

  18. Here in Taiwan, recycling is more and more popular and helps many people earn a living. The government plays an important role in the promotion and enforcement of recycling. People may not adapt themselves to recycling at first but get used to it in the long run.

    While recycling sounds so essential, learning to strip unnecessary wastes is always the one and only one way to saving resources on earth. After all, recycling is a mere post-action, isn't it?

    BTW, the quiz speech seems incomplete. Is it intentional?

  19. In my area, most of the people don't pay much attention to saving the environment. Although recently there is a program calling everyone in my city to keep the city clean and green, but it seems like people don't really take any considerable action. I think the only thing that need to improve is that people should put more recycle bins on the side walk and at other public places. In my opinion, the main reason why people are likely to litter is that there's a lack of recycle bins. Another thing to be concerned is that many people are using plastic bags without considering the harm they are causing to the environment; therefore, raising public's awareness of this issue is necessary, too.

  21. Here in Australia, government has Kept two bins for each home one is recycle bin and the other one is non recycle bin. People need to identify the waste and put it in respective bin. Some lasy people are not doing it. Recently adelaide state government has made rule to stop using plastic covers in shops which is appreciated. my suggestion to government is to keep one more bin to collect waste oil like car engine oil.

  22. I know it is very important to protect the environment. I am not good at recycling. First, I don't know what is recycling material except paper. Second, it takes more time to put papers in recycling bins than garbage bins. There are some recycling bins outside a supermaket.I am a lazy people. I heard battery is harmful to the earth. I want to throw old battery in right palce but I can't find it.

  23. Although recycling is a very important factor in order to protect environment but there is not much attention paid to take full advantage of this option. In my area, since last year property management put a container. It was not announced that the recycling services had been started and there was no formal education. Well, it took people a while to figure that out that the container is supposed to be used for recycling. It took management almost one year to send out brochures what to recycle? What I have observed that people are willing to learn and enthusiastic about recycling but there is no active effort from city as well property management. There are no separate containers for papers, bottles and other recycling materials. I believe that, in our community, we have long ways to go to perfect our practices in recycling. It will take active participation from the property management and city council to educate people and change their habits. People are willing to learn because I know that the single container we have in our property needs to be emptied out frequently than before. This shows that more and more people are participating. But I still see aluminum cans and empty bottles of bear and liquor in our front lawns.

  24. In my town, Grosseto, lots of people recycle the garbage in paper, plastic, glass, organic or inorganic. That is very important for the huminity, animals and our planet's survival. It is not so difficult... We must only put every material in its specific bin.
    In this way, the paper of an old newspaper can be reused as a paper sheet after the recycling.
    Also broken glasses can be trasformed in a bottle.

  26. Nowadays there are many people worried about recycling. I see many of them in television, but around me i do not see where i can put the garbage to recycling in most situations.

    First of all, my city do not have separated spaces for several types of garbages. In fact, when i see the garbage´s truck taking the gargabe i only see the men putting all kinds of them mixed inside the truck.

    For this reason, it is more difficult for us to separate the garbage, because they mixed all of them in the garbage´s truck.

    Overall, i would like to contribute to separate the garbage, but i do not know how to start this work.

  27. We should think which is good for environment before use or buy things.There's a campaign which support using basket instead of plastic bag in my country.Some supermarkets will give you discount if you take your own basket to collect things which you buy instead of using plastic bags.I think it's good ideas.

  28. I think we are lucky here in Austria because we have a good recycling system. Even if i cant say that for every area here. Its crazy but even if i do care about our planet, the waste and the pollution i cant say that i am doing something for it. So are the people around me. Yes, we do have special bins for our waste but we often dont use them and dont care about it. Its sad but thats the way it is. I think it is important to speak in terms of actually facts and figures that everyone can understand. So that people will become more cognizant of the problem. Its important for our planet and for us as well.

  30. I think there are more and more people in my city (Brest, in FRANCE) who feel concerned by the recylcling.
    Indeed, my city make the selective sorting. We have two bins : one for glass, and the other for the plastic, boxes and alluminium.
    People reuse potatoes peels for composting..
    At home, we try to switch the lights off.
    In shop we doesn't give plastic bag, we recycling batteries, bottles, clothes..
    However, some restaurants like "MacDonald" used so much packagings and this is not biodegradable.

  31. I think that the environmental protection is very important but the problem is that few persons feel concerned.
    More and more associations build up to solve this problem, for example in my city there are various sorts of associations : recycling of iron, recycling of old computers, the voluntary work to clean waste in cities...
    Many of the other actions can be carried out at home as sorting, the economy of water, car sharing or take public transport.
    Everybody has to feel concerned about this subject.

  32. To protect the environment, people shouldn't throw their waste in the street but into the bins.
    And people should make the sorting.
    In my city there aren't many bins and recycling centres so people throw the waste on the ground.
    For me, Political should create a law and give a fine to people who pollute the street and the sea.
    If people take their waste to recycling centres. they should get money back.

  33. To protect the planet, I sort out my waste in various trash cans, I reuse my bottles, I switches off light when I go out of every room.

    I buy biodegradable bags because the plastic bags is poluting and are long to decay.

  35. In my area, we have three places where we can recycle garbage. In each place, there are three boxes: one for plastic, one for paper and newspapers and one for glasses.

    At home, we put some of our leftover food (e.g., egg shells, vegetables, coffee ground ...) in a special box. Then we empty this box in a special place. This leftover food is used as fertilizer for our garden. We also collect rainwater and use it to water the garden.

  36. Of course, recycling is an important issue.
    In my country there are special containers for the different garbage ( plastic, glasses, papers...).
    Moreover, more and more shops of my area distribute recyclable bags.
    What's more, in my garden there is a place where we put vegetable, banana peels and egg shells... It's a compost to produce fertilizer.
    And to protect our future, in my country there are wind turbines too to create energy.
    So i think, that people should feel more and more conserned by the environnement and the consequences.

Personally, I try to switch of lamp, water, tv and computer when I don't need it any more.

  41. I do not feel concerned by the recycling because in my district there are not containers to sort out our garbage. In the city people begin to install recycling containers.
    When I was on holidays in the south in France it was much cleanner, if the city took more actions maybe people would sort out their waste.
    However personnally, I return medicines and toxic products which I do not use any more to the pharmacy. I think people weather adapting to the recycling. A simple act for the earth.

  42. To protect our future, we have to react. Everybody has to do something to protect our future. We can take simple actions. For exemple, sort out plastic, paper and glass. They can be recycled! To avoid pollution and the deforestation. In schools, in companies, in the streets we shouldn't throw chewing-gum, paper, bottles on the ground, because they take a very long time to dissapear. It's necessary to use more public transport and less our cars. To take small actions. We must think of the future generations, of the nature, of the fauna and of the flora. A simple act and my earth gets better.

  44. I think that it is easy to recycle and to avoid polluting.

    The problem is that nobody pay attention to pollution and the environment, people don’t sort garbage even if simple.

    It is important to sort garbage, make compost with old food, reuse or customize old clothes.

    We put plastic, glass, paper in the container which are in the streets.

  46. In my area I think that people are not concerned by recycling. The city should suggest the citizens simple actions to limit useless waste.
    That’s why I think that for example we should make a big collect of compost which could be used for the natural in the city.
    However there are containers for recycling but the problem is that they aren’t everywhere in the city.
    That’s why people aren’t motivated to sort of their waste.
    It would be necessary to find more solutions to improve the sorting of waste.
    The city authorities should take the problem more seriously because it is essential.

  47. I really think that global warming is the biggest danger against the humanbeing. It causes serious damages to the earth weather and environment such as deicing the ice mountains in the north pole and south pole, which might completely affect the climate. Tornadoes, floods, and fire forest are all examples of this terrible danger. Here in my country , people are really aware of that, they are doing their best not to pollute the environment. we can minimize the global warming by reducing the amount of gases we use everyday.

    recycling in our area is not taken into account because the people there the only thing they do is throw more, a good solution in our areas is to provide knowledge of the damage hacerca to throw the garbage we generate, as a result of our ignorance ever destroyed but the world around us.

In my area a lot of people switch off the light when the leave a room , or they buy ecologics bulbs, a lot of my neighbours , keep some place in their gardens to have a composter and throw vegetable waste in it. All the inhabitants of my city are worried about that , and they often organise parties to collect money , in order to build a recycling centre. When I go to the supermarket , I try to have paper bags to reuse them, and to move by bike or on foot, that is to say without my car not to pollue the air. And my parents have bought a lot pf solar panels to collect the energy from the sun. I think that politicians , and the media should speak more about the ways to protect our area and about recycling our waste everyday. I't a very important thing to take care of that, beacause the planet is our environment , it's all we have and we have to protect it what ever the way.

  62. In my town we love the enviroment and we recycling. In the morning we put outside of the door the rubbish, and the dustman take it. Every day we chage the type of rubbish; for example, on Monday we've got the Compost (all that we don't eat); on Tuesday we've got paper, like journals and others. Unfortunately some people are very bad: if you see the beach you can find cigarettes, plastic bottles and other rubbish. If all people do recycling the earth could be perfect!

  63. I live with my family at a skyscraper where the building, at the lobby, offers three big containers for recycling materials such as plastic and aluminium bottle, can, paper and plastic bag etc. I would say most of the tenants will drop these recycling trash while they get in and out of the building. People seem understanding our mother natural needs to be cared. Otherwise, our next generations will not able to enjoy what we have had now. As a matter of fact, everyone only has to think about our future before they throw plastic bottle, can and plastic bag to the recycling containers instead of regular trash bin. Moreover, try to save energy by shutting off air-conditions, lights and computers after people finish tasks will help our world last longer.

  65. Frankly speaking, we are not very keen towards the issue of recycling. Though there are many containers which can separate the type of rubbish, many people just ignored it. Government has earned a lot of money to campaign the recycle program, however it 'falls into deaf ears' among residences. For me, it is all about attitude and to what extent on people's awareness towards this matter. Luckily, we have foreign workers that collect the aluminium cans, papers and bottles over the weekend at resident area and sell it to recycle center for their side income.

  66. I think that recycling is the best way to 'help' our Earth.However, most people don't care about this or simply they are not well informed. As for me, I recycle everything because this is our world and we must keep it alive. Therefore,people must be aware that this is an important action for our world and that, thanks to that, we can live better as well.

For protecting envirnment, glass or plastic needs to be scrubbed clean, the labels removed to qualify for recycling, mandatory deposit laws in all places, and making recycling laws. people thought it was hard to be careful to recycle every items.

  76. Recycling is a very good idea and it must be done on a bigger scale. More people must be encouraged to recycle. It is also important to remember that it is not possible to recycle everything and so when it is not possible to recycle or it is too expensive to recycle, it is best to reduce consumption. For example, one resource that can be recycled is water. We built a house in Germany. We selected 2 ways to recycle water in our house. Collecting rain water and reusing it in the garden or toilet and directing water from our bathroom to the garden. Assa from Persia

Actually I was one of the people whom don't care about the recycle but after I came to USA and start to see and listen to the advertising I found that its ok to care a little more about it and I start first. if every one try to care about the recycle and advice each other it will be habit and natural to do it without thinking that its a hard thing to do it.

  91. Recycling is not popular anywhere. Neither people are interested in it, nor governments. There are no big private players who lobby for such activities but there are many who dissuade the governments to support any such movement. But in the recent days, some NGOs as well as some international multi-government bodies are doing a good job in this field. As a learned citizen of our planet Earth we should support such efforts and help that small group of right mind people which are really working for our posterity.

    Paper Recycling
    Paper recycling is the paper recovery process and used to transform into new paper products. There are three categories of paper that can be used as raw material for recycled paper: grinding, pre-consumer waste and scrap of paper post-consumo.1 ground are bits and pieces from the manufacture of paper, and is recycled internally in a paper mill. Pre-consumer wastes are materials that have gone through the paper mill, and have been rejected before they are ready for consumption. Post-consumer waste paper materials are used and that the consumer rejects, such as old magazines or newspapers, office supplies, telephone, etc. The paper considers suitable for recycling is called "scrap of paper"

    Current recycling process

    The paper is recycled paper pulp reducing and combining with new pulp from wood. Since the recycling process causes disruption of the fibers, recycled whenever the quality of the paper decreases, which means that a high percentage must add new fibers, or be synonymous with lower quality products. Any writing or coloring paper must first be removed by decoloración.2
    Almost any type of paper can be recycled today, but some are more difficult to treat than others. The papers covered with plastic or aluminum, and waxed papers, glued or gummed usually not recycled because of the high cost involved. The wrapping paper can not be recycled due to its already poor calidad.3
    Sometimes recycling plants asked to withdraw the brightness of the newspapers, because they are of a different type of paper. They have a clay coating that some factories may not work. Most of the clay is removed from the recycled pulp as sludge.
    [Edit] Reasons for recycling

    The paper industry is an effect in the environment, both with previous activities (which are acquired and processed raw materials), as in the subsequent (impact of disposal). Recycling paper reduces this impact. Currently, 90% of paper pulp is manufactured from wood. Paper production accounts for about 35% of lumber, 4 assuming 1.2% of the global production volume total.5
    Recycling one ton of newsprint saves approximately one ton of wood while recycling one ton of paper copies printed or saved over two tonnes of wood. This is because the pulping of wood requires twice to remove lignin and produce higher quality fibers with mechanical manufacturing processes. The relationship between the tons of recycled paper and the number of trees saved is not trivial, since the size of the trees varies greatly and is the main factor in the amount of paper that can be obtained from a number of them.
    Most pulp manufacturers perform a reforestation to ensure a continuous supply of paper. In Canada, the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) and the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certifies that the paper made from trees felled meets practice guidelines, ensuring best practice is forestales.6 estimated that recycling half the world's paper would avoid the harvesting of 20 million acres (81,000 km ²) forestales.7
    In summary, some reasons to recycle paper are saving:
    17 adult trees.
    2.5 cubic meters of waste.
    27,000 liters of water.
    1440 liters of oil.
    4100 kilowatt hours (14,700 megajoules) of energy.
    27 kilograms of contaminants.
    For every ton of paper recycled, compared with the production of that same ton of virgin paper.

  106. The recycling is an important issue and all people should be aware and take part in saving our environment. But not all people are supporting this opinion. And for this reason our goverment plays an important rule in the promotion and enforcement of recycling. There is necessary to have the aim to penetrate through minds of those who living in developed countries and have more things to worry about then their environment. In my area to save the environment from the pollutions some supermarkets sale a biodegradable bags because the plastic bag is polluting and long to decay. Furthermore there are separate containers in the large parks for organic, inorganic, plastic garbage. And i have observed that people are willing to throw away some waste in correct box. As for my family, my mom and dad also put some of their leftover food (e.g. banana peels, egg shells, ect.)outside in a special box that turn the scraps into soil for their garden. We also save energy turning off the light that we are not using, trying to reduce using washing machine, moreover instead of consuming paper towels for cleaning we try to use fabrics. And we all know that if in our environment will be less pollutions all people won't have respiratory issues

However,thanks to the development of media, individuals are more able to access to environmental problems, by taking part in campaigns, conservation, and some other activities,especially youngsters. But we must change our attitude and improve awareness. Trash is still thrown to streets everyday. In my opinion, Vietnamese governments are only scratching the surface in tackling this acute problem

    However we can't solve the environmental problems with just recycling. We use more things than we really need. And the resources of the Earth are not infinite. We should think seriously about it. If not, we will suffer the consequences.

And my country are developing so it has many proplem, including evironmental issue. Actualy, I also feel shame cos I am not really protecting environment yet. Sometime I still waste resource such as water, elictricity, paper,...
    But I will effort to protect planet and tell people around me protect it together.
    I think we can save our planet by turn of light, computer, fan...when we no using it. I know many people can not do it because they are feel it inconvenient. For example, my friends and even me often light the lamp in bathroom but we dont turn of it when we go out. I used to remind them turn of when I see. Sometimes, I am in hurry of go to work, i tend to go without turning off lamp but my mind remind me need to save electricity so I am back to my room and turn off.
    Second, we can save paper by using any paper which have white side to write such as celendar, paper which was writen a side...

  119. -What are five specific things individuals can do to protect the environment?
    I think that there are many things that people can do to protect the environment, such as: 1. To reuse recipients and bags as many times as possible; 2. Not to waste water when people is in the bathroom, cooking or washing dishes; 3. To separate rubbish according to materials and dispose them in the proper bag or can (color system), etc; 4. To turn off unused lights and unplugged unused household appliances, and so on; 5. To reduce the use of one's car.

    -What are some reasons why people do not recycle or are careless when they dispose of garbage?
    In my oppinion, it is a matter of unawareness of the environmental problem with waste, or because people do not know about the benefits of recycling, or even because they do not see a profit outcome from doing it.

    -Are there any unique programs in your city or country that promote recycling and protecting the environment?
    There are few governmental programs but they are not enough. The policies do exist but they are not well executed or implemented. There is a lack of authority to impose penalty fees and other measures.

    I think it doesn't need to much effort to take care of our enviroment. First step which you can do to collect rubbishes separatly. In Hungary there are specific conainers (paper, PET and almost all type of plastic, metal, glass) where you can drop your rubbishes. Not really necessarry to buy a specific container. You can use dedicated bags as me:) I've read the previous artice. Once I was mocked by my frinds that I had collected the bio rubbish in a holiday and had brought home. Maybe it was overdrawn ... and stink a little bit:D Bye! Mike

  121. Hi,
    Well, I think people is careless about recycling or enviromental impact because they don´t think in a long term vision, they just live the "right now moment" and don´t consider the future, even though goverments also play a big roll in this polemic issue, goverments need to teach people about the advantages of recycling and how this process can be turned in a good way to improve their life.
    I'm from El Salvador, and we don't have any Reclyng Program, but there are some ONG's, zero in on little towns far way from the capital city, that teach farmers how to recycle manure, for example.

  122. What are five specific things individuals can do to protect the environment?
    To begin with, first of all, people should collect their litter and sort this out if it needs. Secondly, individuals should educate their kids about environmental issues and not going to be conscious of that can lead to the disaster worldwide. Thirdly, to avoid excessive consumerism in supermarkets and shops is to purchase only such commodities that are needed, indeed. Fourthly, using smarthome systems and electric cars is the way to wane emissions out of the passing petrol and diesel engine vehicles. Last but not least, beware of the last technology advancements about reusable products is the way to consciously buy this items.
    What are some reasons why people do not recycle or are careless when they dispose of garbage?
    I firmly believe that the reasons are as simple as possible. Folks do not want to think about it and they have far more important tasks during their daily life. Again, disposing of garbage are getting harder because sometimes individuals do not know how to sort it out properly.
    Are there any unique programs in your city or country that promote recycling and protecting the environment?
    Yes, they are. There are few of them, actually, across the whole country. Plastics, paper, glass recycling are recycled by the factories which is located in the capital. In smaller towns there are only dumps and pipes. Our country and population do not care of that.

    4. To improve recycling technologies
    5. You create programs that encourage pesonas to enlighten the importance of saving energy and wáter

    The main reasons why people do not recycle are lack of education and lack of standards by governments generenn fines for those who do not.

    What are five specific things individuals can do to protect the environment?

    To begin with, I'm from the country where the public policy on protection of the environment is loose. Specifically, there is no effective legislation and enforcement on recycling waste. To introduce an effective policy to protect the environment I would suggest a set of measures. Firstly, people must initiate and launch a public campaign, using social media, newspaper, TV to involve the wider audience. Doing so, they should emphasize the negative impact of improper recycling habits on the environment. The public campaign should be constant and well-resourced with voluntary activists. Secondly, people should educate their family members, others who is not aware of the environmental problems and their impact. Thirdly, every person himself/ herself must be a good example for others, showing how to sort out the garbage or behave properly in the streets or nature. Fourthly, people should contribute to drafting a national program, action plan, and approving effective legal framework to protect the environment, based on the internationally recognized standards and practices. Lastly, people should bear in mind that to enforce the legislation and rules effectively they should set a high penalty for the violations. enforce the legislation and rules effectively they should set a high penalty for the violations.



    What are some reasons why people do not recycle or are careless when they dispose of garbage?

    In my opinion, people do not recycle properly or careless whey they dispose of garbage, because of the lack of the knowledge how to sort out the garbage.

    Are there any unique programs in your city or country that promote recycling and protecting the environment?

    Nowadays, environmentally friendly developing nations developed comprehensive technology to recycle waste. The city where I live should introduce such technologies to reduce negative environmental impact.

    In my city there aren't many bins and recycling centres so people throw the waste on the ground.
    For me, Political should create a law and give a fine to people who pollute the street and the sea.
    If people take their waste to recycling centres. they should get money back.

  136. Recycling is a beneficial process, that could conserve our environment. However, not all of us could understand the impotence or this mechanism in our time. However,some people care of our surroundings by digging domestic waste, besides plastic things. Moreover, some of them gather & sortie plastics,glasses& papers in special cans.

  137. In my city there is a lack of recycling awareness,most of the people don't know how to separate the different materials in a correct way. I can tell all we need is more educaction about it.

  138. Where I live, Sao Paulo, Brazil, something new could appear to show our population how important is take care of planet earth. There is no important attitudes of people about those topics where I live, so the only thing that I can do is do my part and tell people that I live together to do something for our planet. In my house, we separate the garbage that countains plastic, radioative materials and organic trash, because it will help the final receptor who will treat it.

  139. As far as I'm concerned, there's been improvement in protecting the environment, but still not much in recycling. There're even people having no sense of this activity. I hope in the future, there'll be more positive changes.

  140. What are five specific things individuals can do to protect the environment?

    - Recycle the materials ( plastic, cardboard...)
    - Improve the advertising about recycling
    - Implement a project at schools with the objective of teaching students how to recycle
    - Show the importance do not wasting natural resources, for example when we wash the teeth (just 3 minutes !) or when we take a shower, with speakers in classroom and show the importance of taking care of the planet
    - Take the bus or the bicycle (and leave the car at home) when the road is not too long

    The main reasons why people do not recycle is that they are not aware of the impact in the environment, and they do not have time to change this comportment, because of the routine or even monetary reasons. In my country we recycle the cardboard and the plastic in two differents trash cans. Also, at my garden we have a compost for the waste that after we can use for the planting!

  142. I think what we can do to protect and safe the world is we can do gotong-royong with our neighbours.While we do gotong-royong we also can make a friends with our neighbourhood.Also,we can do campaign.It is because with this campaign we also can attract people to join this campaign and also we can do some race.Example,recycling project at home,coloring contest for children and also home cleanest competition.

  143. Environmental protection is vital for the future generations and of course for us. According to my eyes, there are several specifics ways that we can do in order to protect the environment, for instances:

    1) Selecting adequately what we buy in the market. That is, buying green and eco-friendly products.
    2) Advocating for a good environmental policy in their countries.

    In spite of some entities' effort, many people do not care about the mother nature. I think this happens because people do not know the process of the recycling inside the home. For example, in my city, authorities did not make a plan to confront the garbage problem. So as a consequence some people drop off the garbage in the streets which has enormous effects in the public health.

  144. Environment protection is an important job to regulate the damage that we deal to the Earth, help our planet last longer so we, other species can live
    Not only the adult but also the children can help to improving the environment by reduce the amount of garbage that a family produce to the environment per city, state. For each person, family reduce less and less, the more less garbage that we have to deal with and also the less toxic chemical from those garbage could effect to the environment. We can reducing the CO2 exported to the air by using non-gas car, engine that we use in our daily life such as riding a bike in a city instead of a car, use electronic subway or even walk in those large city, it not only help to reduce the damage to the planet but also help to improve your health in life.

  145. I think recycling takes a important place in the earth, most of the pollution is due to the people that do not recycle. We can prevent the pollution recycling plastic and other thing. Here in Panama, were I live, we really don't do much of recycling. Most of my neighbors thriw some rests of food in the soil, those rest of foods give the soil more nutrients. I think we should recycle more to avoid pollution and help the nature.

  146. JT: I think that in my community recycling is something you see, because it is difficult to see the rubbish thrown through the streets or forests where I live. I think it is a subject that is very stressed, but hardly people take seriously. In my opinion I am someone very clean when garbage is being talked about because I like to recycle and become things that my family does not use in something nice

  149. Well as everyone know protecting our environment is something that we as humanos should do as an obligation, but sadly in Panama many people are not conscious about how can pollution affect us, thats why many people here in this country Just don't pay attention about this problematic and leave everything to the hands of the goverment.
    I think that there exist many ways of protecting our planet and one of it is by reusing as more as posible because it will reduce a lot the among of plastic and papel that in the end finish in the seas killing many animals and also by reducing the use of water and lights at home. I just want to add that it would be good if we teach children since they are little Kids the importance of Earth and that we must protect it if we want to continue living million an million of year in this planet.

  150. In my opinion it is very important to protect the environment for pollution. sometimes and when I can recycle as much as I can, separating the materials used at home, for example paper and food. My parents one day took me to see the water plant, it was awesome !! ; At age 6 they took me and a worker told me that water is also part of recycling; There, I began to save water at home and to practice recycling day by day.

  151. We have to try to take care of the environment, since this is where we live, so we can take care of it by not throwing garage, if we go to a nearby place, walk, burn the garbage, reuse things like the blasas of the super market, not smoke, we must put a lot of our part to put have a world more lim

  152. My name is Claris Sánchez This issue of recycling is very important. And first of all I think that we have to implement laws against throwing garbage in rivers, seas, and the city. Because it affects us humans and animals alike, and these laws should be taken seriously and if they see someone throwing garbage they should sanction it, because they are not taking care of where they live. In addition, recycling is a very good idea to eliminate garbage since recycling can be done different activities.

  154. Recycling is a mayor issue nowadays. the worst part of all is that our governments don't seem to pay much attention. they'd rather allocate millions of dollars in political campaigns which do not help address this issue at all. In my country, we don't have any recycling center that I know of and I hear no efforts from anywhere regarding ways to improve this.

  155. Most people think that recycling is unnecessary, however, we do not realize the damage we cause to ourselves and the environment. In the case of Panama there are recycling companies such as "Gesvil Recycling", where there are containers where you can deposit and recycle plastic containers, cardboard, glass, aluminum cans, metal, among others ...
    There are few people who recycle, by not recycling the trash this clogs the sewers. If sewers become clogged due to garbage, this can cause flooding and serious problems in the city. The rivers and seas are being polluted, reducing the habitat of the species that live in them and even killing them ...

  156. In Panama, for me, recycling should be taken more seriously. I would call Panama one of the countries that does not worry about recycling at all. The current government has not worried in the least about this issue that is so important to us. We must take care of the only place where we live, the planet earth. If people in Panama do not throw garbage everywhere we can have a nicer and cleaner country but the government as before said does not take the slightest time to think about this topic, recycling

  157. Based on my own experience in Canada, the government has implemented several green projects to pith in for the sustainable development of our society. There is an outpouring of support of old and new generations concerned about this global issue. To illustrate, in my city, Montréal, it is almost mandatory to recycle and people have access to public recycling boxes in almost every single corner os the city.

  160. Here in Mexico few people have the habit of recycling. But some people create ideas to be better people with the planet, creating awareness in the facts. We are trying to reduce the use of paper and plastic, to avoid the excessive felling of trees and pollution.

  161. in Mexico few people has the culture of recycling, even though it's a very talked topic. It´s believed that to reduce the pollutants we must apply the 3'R : reduce, recycle and reuse.
    The government and even many people have implemented measures for recycling, such as recycling centers with special containers.
    The collected plastics, papers, glasses, etc. go through a special process to be reused later.

  162. Here on Costa Rica some of us really makes effort to keep our country Green. As student of ecológical tourism I can said that we really worry about the environment, flora and fauna. My classmates and I went to diferrent schools of the area giving workships to the youngest population: the Kids, teaching them how to good recycling and how to protect the planet.

  163. Good Morning
    In my area, there is a small car with few workers who make garbage collection one day per week so I just split up, glass material because it is a risky material to handle for them when they pick up the garbage. I consider this material in particular because workers don´t use protective gloves always.The another garbage like waste from vegetables, I like to put in small container in the yard then later all these material can be useful to add in a few plant that I have in house.
