| Recycling as a state of mind
In this day and age, it’s hard to go
anywhere and not feel burdened by the pressures of life. Anything from
getting a job, to earning a degree can help place pressure on anyone’s
life. However, more recently we’re also placed under the pressure of
slowly destroying our planet due to the amount of chemicals and
emissions that we create through production, and through polluting our
planet, and destroying our eco-system.
 Surely we’ve got enough to think about, other than the planet. However
it is vital to our very being that we are conscious about our future,
and what we expect of the planet and our lifestyle.
Recycling can easily be seen as a state of mind. By recycling, we are
helping stop many of the deadly things which are causing our planet to
slowly dissipate, and lose its life forms. Through recycling, we are
ensuring our future is safe.
Our future is dependant on many things. Trivial, and commercial things
aside, we need oxygen, we need food, and we need water, and we need the
many millions of tiny animals helping to support our eco-system, which
keep the aforementioned things available to us.
If we do not start recycling our water, our energy sources, and the
products and items in which we use, surely we are sending our own planet
to an early grave.
Every day the oceans of the world are being polluted, through the use of
oil tankers, cruise ships and even common fishing boats. While we can’t
immediately help the amount of oil that is carelessly being disposed of
in our oceans, we can help keep those oceans clean, by recycling our
items, and correct disposal of garbage, to ensure it doesn’t end up in
the ocean.
Thankfully many countries have passed bills, stating that anyone caught
literally near the ocean will be fined severely, to help put a stop to
the casual littering.
Through pollution, we are polluting the world, and the plants within it.
Flora is what keeps the human race alive, with its ability to clean the
oxygen we breathe, produce fruit and vegetable to keep our bodies
healthy, and running efficiently, and feeding the many fauna which roam
the earth.
If we are constantly polluting the trees and plants of the world, we are
indirectly polluting the many animals that a good portion of us
carnivores enjoy on a daily basis for food.
If we are not careful how we dispose of rubbish, we can pass on diseases
and unwanted bacteria to animals, which may cause them to become sick
and spread an epidemic. This would not be great for our future, because
without food and water, we have nothing else to live on.
So by seeing the direct and indirect causes that pollution can make,
recycling can make a vast difference to the world around us.
Consider recycling as a state of mind. By recycling a few bottles, or
some old paper, you’re not just helping the animals or the plants around
you. You’re also ensuring that your future is safe, and so are your
descendants.
By recycling, you’re keeping the world clean, increasing its longevity,
and allowing yourself a piece of mind when you consider your future.
