Our crops suffer from abnormal warmth.

Landfills and other structures have exessive amounts of trash.

The whole world is affected

SDG 12

Responsible Consumption and Production

Why recycle out of all the ideas?

2221058_1 — 2024-03-15 23:25:28 UTC

It's cheap and easy to do.

Plastic and some other waste are relatively easy to access which means we have no problems with resources.

Air Pollution: releases harmful gases and particulate matter into the air. These contributes to respiratory diseases and climate change.

Water Pollution: with landfills and poorly managed waste sites, it contaminates groundwater and surface water with toxic chemicals, affecting aquatic ecosystems and human health.

Soil Contamination: hazardous waste seeping into the soil can harm plant life, reduce soil fertility, and eventually impact food crops.
