These photos are from all over the world. They're not from one particular place...one particular source...but they do have one particular purpose.Â
The purpose of these photos is to demonstrate the horrifying reality of what happens when you don't recycle, and encourage you to be more careful about your waste.Â
There are 7.3 billion people in the world right now, but that number is on the up and up. Within 64 years that number will very likely be closer to 15 billion.
The scary, but very much likely, result of this is going to be more waste.
But what do we do with that waste?
That's where responsibility comes in. We CAN'T waste as much as we are right now.
It's our responsibility to keep things like this from happening.
In 1967, people generated 2.7 pounds of waste in a day.
That number is up to an inexplicable 4.3.
If we want to keep our world clean and its citizens healthy...
We've got to do better.
Don't waste.
Reduce, reuse, recycle.
