STREET LITTERING

<Environment>

STREET LITTERING

In a recent article, an environmentalist boldly stated that: “Human beings should be heading for a rubbish-free society. In the near future, environment shall be a golden factor to assess the developmental rate of each country, not the prosperity or economic impact anymore. Hence, a street without garbage will put your hometown on the map”. However, there still exists a miserable fact that street littering is ubiquitous and wreaks a negative havoc on the whole community. This issue seems “minimal” to some individuals but actually it has been an unresolved problem for centuries.

To begin with, we will seek the roots of this serious plight. Firstly, what leads to the great devastation of street littering is our “awareness”.
Obviously, we are directly affected by the surrounding environment. If we grow up in the neighborhood that considers street littering is acceptable, this will become a common practice. Secondly, we are living in an industrial world. Most products we consume everyday are packaged in plastic, which is harmful and difficult to be disposed of. People tend to drop these packages accidentally or intentionally on the streets. Lastly, in most countries, there is no official law to force their citizen not to leave trash in public places. This has deteriorated the issue. To sum up, human beings are the main cause and they should be responsible for their behaviors.

Street littering not only affects the aesthetic beauties of the city but also impact people`s physical health. Governments have been working hard on this issue. For instance, Singapore is noted for their success to establish a no-littering community. This country set a perfect example for other countries to follow. However, to make great progress, we need more efforts because it is much more complicated to succeed like Singapore if your country is bigger in size and population. The priority should be put on educating people due to the fact that “awareness” is the key to changing our behaviors. Moreover, we could add more bins on the street or make a dent in using packages. As you know, all big things start from small things. Being a young generation, we should be a driving force to reinvigorate our environment. You can do that now by: NEVER LITTERING ON THE STREET!!!!
