In the contemporary era, there is a pressing concern regarding human rubbish. While some individuals. assert that the authorities should impose regulations to force citizens to reuse their waste, others contend that this issue should be the self-culture of the individual. In my perspective, I firmly support any step that could limit waste prevalence around the world.
Undoubtedly, governments can’t stop waste production, but they can enforce individuals to segregate it before disposal. Reprocessing waste represents one of the highest moral values. From an ethical point of view, it is unacceptable behaviour to enjoy our lives and leave our rubbish behind us for the next generation to handle it. Moreover, recycling waste could generate social revenue and be used to develop the infrastructure of the community. Ultimately, waste reprocessing operations start with the individual; each person should have self-motivation and secure the environment for himself and his babies.
There are various steps that should be taken to address and mitigate the consequences of this issue. Firstly, awareness campaigns should be published on all social media platforms and on TV to demonstrate the importance of waste reprocessing and its negative impact on the environment. Secondly, governments should encourage teenagers to participate in cleaning campaigns for their communities to foster the value of environmental conservation. Finally, regulations should be implemented for citizens; they are not conformists and committed to laws. For instance, waste segregation in Japan for domestic rubbish is essential. In any Japanese home, you can see at least three garbage plastic bags with different colours: one for plastic, like a water bottle; a second one for food; and a third one for glass. If you mixed waste, you would pay a penalty.
In conclusion, I totally agree with the laws that will make people recycle their waste before throwing it into the environment and polluting it.
