WE ARE CHOCKING OUR OWN ENVIRONMENTS


WE ARE CHOCKING OUR OWN ENVIRONMENTS 

When many people throw away their trash do they ever consider where it might end up? No matter where someone deposits their trash, it almost always ends up in the same place. Depending on if their trash ends in the proper disposal area. For many people, it can be an easy task to throw away their trash and never think twice about it. Does one ever consider the journey of the so-called trash? The trash can end up in a landfill, Rivers, swamps, trenches, or even water bodies. Waste disposal is an important environmental issue at hand. Without a major change, it can hurt the earth and the people who live on the planet and even the environment. What many people fail to realize is the effect that they have on the planet. If they don’t take care of it.

Not disposing of empty bottles the right way has many negative effects. It can create many environmental problems. Plastic and polyethylene trash is becoming more and more of a bigger threat every day in the societies we live in. Polyethylene bags and plastic bottles are made up of so many toxic substances that are of great danger to our environment and health. When such trash makes its way to  landfills, water bodies, water ways or any parts of the environment, the ecosystem, plant life,and animals,even the food supplies are affected which ends up causing way more problems to the everyday personal needs.

We generate so much waste because some people are unaware of the need to re-use things so as to minimize the effects. Government's failure to include environmental studies in the curriculum of elementary and high schools has contributed to peoples ignorance about environmental proctection and preservation. If we don't focus on the dangers that are coming ahead because of our own negligent actions, then we risk putting the coming generations into war that will never end. 

It's a prudent practice to properly dispose off plastic bottles and polyethylene bags than chocking yourself and your grand daughters & sons because of failure to carry out proper disposal of wastes. Breaking the ignorance about improper waste effects starts from your own social unit. Teach your off springs the dangers they would face if they treat the environment unjustly.

The concept of environment preservation and protection has been negligently showed a closed eye because the oppressors of the environment are the leaders themselves. But should you fall in the same boat in line with their ill intentions, then the backfire of nature will be unworthy to be welcomed.

THE BAD BEHAVIOURS THAT COULD SUFFOCATE NATURE

THE BAD BEHAVIOURS THAT COULD SUFFOCATE NATURE In most of our environments we live in so many things are done which end up affecting the environment. its not that we lack the knowledge about the dangers of such bad behaviors but instead some people are ignorant about them. These bad behaviors are done on a daily basis leaving planet earth in tears because no one seems to be friendly to it. Why would you negligently throw plastic bags and bottles on the ground. After enjoying your drink packaged in either a plastic bag or bottle, the best way to show mother planet earth that your her friend would be disposing off properly that plastic bag or bottle. However almost everyone has failed to grasp or know the dangers of such items to the environment. Scientifically it is proved that a polythene or plastic can   take anywhere from 20 to 500 years to decompose, depending on the material and structure. This is so scary  to mother planet and don't feel that mother pl...

ENVIRONMENT IS EVERYONE'S RIGHT TO PROTECT BUT NOT EVERYONE'S PRIORITY TO DESTROY

  Environment Is Everyone's Right To Protect But Not Everyone's Priority To Destroy. This is because nature is a fundamental component in society that helps man meet his day to day basic basic needs like water, food, shelter. Then why would we participate in destroying something that sustains our lives. We are called to defend and shield the environment at all times. Herbert-Mugisha
