Garbage is a big problem all over the world. People buy and use a lot of things nowadays. After a while, they throw them away in the garbage can. All the garbage is later thrown away or dumped outside the city.About one-third of all the garbage is made of paper. Another third of the garbage is a mix of glass, metal, plastic, and wood. The final third comes from food scraps. These are remains of food that are not eatable any more. Food scraps are not a big garbage problem for the environment. Our natural world can get rid of food scraps. Insects and bacteria eat food scraps and make them go away.
Another type of garbage we throw away is metal. The cans for soft drinks are made of aluminum. Aluminum is toxic too. The paper and wood we throw away are not toxic. But we have to cut down many trees every year to make paper and wood. Our environment suffers when there are no forests. The air is less fresh, and earth dries up. With no water on the earth, plants cannot grow. In fact, the best thing to do is to reduce the amount of garbage.
