We are encountering a sever problem with the accumulation of garbage on account of the increasing population and rapid industrial development. Excess trash inside or outside the home is inevitable to draw such pests as rats, flies and cockroaches, which carry viruses and infection disease. Mold and bacteria also grow on rubbish and do harm to our health. Indeed, the rapid- increasing amount of junk is threatening the environment as well as our health.
We have the ability to diminish garbage by transforming waste into valuable resources. Such materials as glass, metal , and paper are able to be reprocessed into new products. Kitchen scraps can be made into compost, which can be added to soil to help plants grow. Besides, we are supposed to pick out reusable, not disposable, products and avoid buying over-packaged goods.
Last but not least, we can donate our old furniture and household items for recycling. If we carry out these above-mentioned steps, we will certainly lessen the amount of rubbish.

Another teacher and I had a discussion group at the coffee house last week. We discussed garbage and even showed a video clip of a man in LA who didn't throw anything away for a year. I think you can find clips on youtube or CNN student news if you are interested.
