At any given moment, it is obvious that most things around us are made of plastic including, dishes, carrier bags and twist ties. While using these products, people do not have the slightest idea if these plastic products impact the environment, where they come from, where they
Disposable Containers for a Disposable Society As society goes through its day-to-day activities, it consumes an enormous amount of liquids. Of course, those liquids are packaged in various types of apparatuses, many of which are disposable. But disposable to whom? "Out of sight-out of mind," maybe? Granted, disposable and throwaway containers are a convenience for the moment, but they are rapidly becoming a devastating eye sore. Disposable bottles and cans invite enormous hazards to the environment
Going off Grid (Homesteading) Does Not Mean You Go Without Denying yourself and your family things for comfort or survival is not self-sufficiency. Being self-sufficient simply means you are now the one providing what you need to survive and be comfortable, and not someone else. A private well, for example, means you do not have to rely on your local government to provide you with water. Raising your own produce and livestock allows you to control what chemicals are used to repel pest and what antibiotics
Homelessness is increasing every year and effecting Americans of different age, ethnicity and religion. In Lars Eighner “On Dumpster Diving” he explains what he went through while being homeless. He describes how and what foods someone should be looking for and to always be conscious of what one is eating because there is always a reason why something has been thrown out. He continues to go into detail about other items that can be found in the dumpster like sheets to sleep on and pieces of paper

Trash in the Ocean The reason why I chose this topic was because I don’t like seeing trash in the oceans, lakes or ponds just anything. It’s annoying how people don’t know how to take care for stuff. Especially that other people see it not just one or two people but thousands of people see it. When people see that there’s trash all around the area there not going to want to go back to that ocean or that part that they went to because they see that it’s all trashy there and it’s not healthy for humans
Everywhere in society, it’s simple to find a person speeding down a freeway, see a gum wrapper rolling through the wind, or see someone jaywalking when there are stop lights close by. Frank Trippett, in his excerpt, argues that more and more citizens are breaking small laws such as speeding, littering, and taxes. He continues by claiming social order is disrupted when these laws are broken. He supports his position by explaining how people think violent crime is the only way to disrupt social order
American Diversity I was climbing up the stairs when I saw her outside her door, always kind, delicate, looking great. “Are you coming from the gym?” My disheveled grey hair pulled back with a black plastic clip, leggings and snickers made that obvious, fortunately. “I am. Do you want to go there?” She’s new in our building, so I figured she wouldn’t know where the gym was, and immediately entered the “helpful mode.” But she seemed pretty self-assured as she answered in perfect English, perfect
Every day it grows, every minute more is produced, overtime this could cause problems if certain people do not do their jobs. This subject is trash, it grows every day, every minute more is produced, and if trash-men do not pick up the trash that is produced and clean it up then it could cause some problems. Who wants to be a trash-man? Who wants to be the one to pick the trash up, that others produce? Ladies and gentlemen, we are running out of trash service workers. We need more workers in
These past few days, I learned a lot about myself. One of the things I learned about myself is that I am a, Auditory learner. I didn’t agree at at first and after I read it, I said to myself that ‘’That is totally me’’.It said that as a, auditory learner is a person who listens to ideas and loves to tell jokes and I often like to talk to myself. I have trouble writing, and that was one of my goals for this year to become a better writer. I don’t really read body language because I like to express
I walked into the local dive bar and observed the unchanging scene I did every Friday night. The same young soldiers were pushing each other around and sloshing alcohol down each other’s throats. The bartenders were once again serving the locals all the while ignoring the flood of advances being thrown their way by baby booming grandfather like patrons. The usual hustlers were lined up alongside the pool table. They were scanning the crowd and scouting out their mark, ultimately deciding to play
A Universe in a Pizza Box In one corner of our yard, just to the right of the trash cans and behind an aging fence, there is a stack of several pizza boxes, or at least there was one until last Sunday. These pizza boxes had accumulated almost mysteriously over some weeks in a very neat stack in the dirt beside the garbage cans. They waited patiently to be put out by the curb for the Tuesday morning recycling truck. Somehow though, while the neighboring trash cans moved in and out from the curb

Joshua R #23 Religion Sept. 22, 2016 Short-Sightedness What is Short-Sightedness? Short-sightedness means when citizens of the world do an action and don’t think about the bad consequences that might happen in the future. For example when humankind cut down too many trees, they are wasting resources that other people can use in the future. It also means that when humanity does not think about how their actions will affect the next generations to come. The opposite of short-sightedness
In Ralph Ellison’s novel Invisible Man, one of Ellison’s greatest assets is his ability to bestow profound significance upon inanimate objects. During the narrator’s journey from the bar to the hole, he acquires a series of objects that signify both the manifestations of a racist society, as well as the clues he employs to deconstruct his indoctrinated identity. The narrator’s briefcase thereby becomes a figurative safe in his mind that can only be unlocked by understanding the true nature of the

of having a ban towards plastic bags is important for many reasons, they are wrecking the environment and costing hundreds and thousands of dollars in the process.
