Conclusion

Now we have come to the end of the lesson...

          Lets review what we have learned:

What is garbage pollution?

The two main causes of garbage pollution are a lack of a proper garbage collection system in the area and the presence of an improper disposal mechanism. In most cities, garbage is collected by a civic agency or contractor and disposed of properly.

Effect of garbage pollution on humans

Many people are affected by garbage pollution. There are millions of people who get diseases because they live near a garbage dump. Some people even live in a town or village made of garbage. The only job there is surfing through garbage and selling anything useful. The lack of sanitation also causes many people to get sick. Even in countries where garbage does not seem like a problem, such as the US, it still is one. There are times when a landfill will pollute a broken water pipe, which would have a huge impact on a town that depends on the water. The methane coming from it will also hurt the environment by destroying the ozone layer. With these problems in mind, we should try to reduce the amount of garbage produced.

Ways of disposing of garbage

  • recycle
  • compost
  • trash can
