My Current Readings #11

A world wide and global issue involving recycling. An article found on http://www.kare11.com/news/earthkare_article.aspx?storyid=538716&catid=309) titled U of M Raises a Stink Over Lack of Recycling. One regular old day on the campus of University of Minnesota College, the normal little bundle of trash thats left to lie on the sidewalk had quintupled. Not only was there a little pile of trash as there usually is, but there was a sidewalk full of trash. It is said that a garbage truck dumped a full load of trash onto the campus's sidewalk to "teach them a lesson." The garbage trucks point was to show that there was this much garbage normally with kids not being respectful and recycling as they should be. Volunteers from the school went through the entire pile of garbage and picked out every individual thing that 'could've' been recycled. What nobody seems to understand in this world is that the landfills in this world that we are constantly and repeatedly filling with garbage, are becoming over loaded and we are running out of places to put our garbage. Recycling is the only thing known to us as of now that will lessen the ridiculous amounts of garbage us humans are accumulating. RECYCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
