These days, recycling is a very important matter and people raise their living standards, as well as the level of trash all over the globe. Some people think that recycling should be made mandatory. I totally support the latter viewpoint. My justifications are below.
The first and foremost reason why I like it is that although many people know about the positive effects that recycling can bring, they still choose to throw their waste on the roadside or in the landfill. It can breed maggots, flies, and other disease-carrying insects that can thrive there. The environment would be cleaner and healthier if more people started recycling even their wet waste.
Furthermore, there are some groups of people who only obey the law when forced to, so the government also needs to establish regulations and laws related to recycling management. The government can also distribute waste sorting bins to each municipality to support the operation of recycling centers. If people do not recycle properly or do not dispose of waste properly, the government should severely punish them, otherwise this will greatly affect the environment and cause pollution.
To sum up, in order to get people to recycle at home, we need to combine legal mandates with educational campaigns. While the role of the law is to ensure compliance, the role of education is to create a willing citizenry. If governments could effectively utilize laws and education, I believe that household waste recycling rates would steadily rise.
