The packages come in big boxes sometimes, boxes which get wasted. When people unbox their purchases, most of the time they don\u2019t recycle them. Some boxes are big and don\u2019t fit into the recycle bin even if they do. I have seen people leave boxes outside. When it ruins, it destroys the boxes and goes to waste.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We usually don\u2019t sort our trash out and just dump it into dumpsters. The moment people take their trash out and throw it into the dumpsters it is no longer their responsibility. It becomes someone else responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Before taking this class and discussing waste items I have never thought about being responsible for my trash or items that go to waste. Discussing waste and reading about San Man I realized how difficult it is for people who take the trash out and keep the environment clean.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>in Kabul, where I lived for 20 years. There is trash everywhere. The entire city is a gigantic dumpster. The municipality tried to get people to take their trash out properly, but people never listen to them \u201cour city is our home, keeping our city clean, means keeping our home clean.\u201d It is their slogan. But people leave their crash on the street all the all. \u00a0Eating food and throwing trash out of a car window is a usual thing that some people do.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I believe taking care of my crash is my responsibility until I take it out. Everyone should take their trash out properly. Seal the bags, and they should be left in front of the dumpster. Leaving broken glasses could be very dangerous for those taking the trash out. I don\u2019t know whose responsibility it becomes when we take the trash out. But their job is very important. If people don\u2019t do this hard job, the city will look ugly and smell horrible. And that can the source of many diseases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have noticed that in America people shop on Amazon a lot.
