Deforestation is happening in many parts of the world that causes a serious environmental pollution. Many countries depend on this industry for their political and economic stability. Logging companies are providing many raw materials that are used to build myriad products. For example they provide wood that is being used for furniture, houses and several other products that we don’t want to give up. Still I believe we can do something from our side.
For instance consider a “shopping bag”; we go to the store, shop the product and get the shopping bag, later we throw it away, even if that bag still has lifespan. We should reuse it for our next shopping and once the life of that bag is over we shouldn’t throw it, instead we should submit it for recycling. Now a days, many countries are creating recycling centers within walking distance, there is no more excuse to not use them.
Similarly, a “paper”; although paper is cheap, it doesn’t mean to throw it after use. We should use a paper to recycle. The more we will recycle the paper, the demand of paper reduces and in a result logging will be reduced, more we can save our environment. These are some action items that all individuals should take care about. I recently read an article that government of Japan imposes fines on people who throw trash anywhere. They have a proper system to collect trash, for example monday for papers, tuesday for plastic, wednesday for items like cans etc. So they are maintaining a system to do recycling. All countries should follow these rules to promote recycling and to save our environment.
