SOS - Recycling

Recycling is a process to convert waste materials into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling) by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal.

In this age of industrial revolution, our environment is consistently being polluted by various things which involves not only wasteful discharges from industries and factories but also burning of fossil fuel, CFC's playing there role, discharges from vehicles, cutting of trees, increasing housing societies and clearing of meadows are a plus. So in short we are not leaving one point of damaging our environment. If no steps taken soon enough we would have no option other than to leave this planet and by far we have only one earth. By following the phrase of "it's never too late" we should gear up and start working on something to save and preserve our Earth. The best way can be by recycling.

Recycling is the reuse of products. The plastic bags and bottles that we dispose of in the garbage are very dangerous for the soil. Plastic is the material which takes very long to decompose. If it stays in the soil for a longer period of time it changes the soil chemistry. The soil is no more productive. So in order to avoid that plastic stuff should be disposed of least.

In France the artists had taken a step forward and presented an exhibition displaying various artifacts made of plastic bottles. Their work was breathe taking and beautiful. They had no doubt opened up a way to present recycling can be used at a large scale.

An architect in Philippine had made a house using all plastic bottle and mud and had dedicated it to the homeless people. So recycling is being taken seriously these days. With this generous gesture I think we can play a part to reduce the problem of homelessness.

Many home based designers have started working on selling home made products. From jewelry to home decor, natural synthetic system and even electronics. People are aware and have started working on it.

Social media is also playing major role in promoting it. Some future scientist are working on creating chargers that doesn’t require electricity. Using water, sun or wind as a medium they are practicing to generate home based electricity.

Even the actual botanist are working on the techniques by which they can produce electricity directly from plants. They have devised a mechanism by which they will be able to enable a living plant to produce electricity and that would be a great step forward.

In conclusion, we the people have to save the place where we live. No one else is going to take care for it from the outside. Many have started working on it but a collective effort is required which will make us to leave this world a better place to live.
