Some people claim that not enough of the waste from homes is recycled. Theys ay that the only way to increase recycling is for governments to make it a legal requirement.
To what extent do you think laws are needed to make people recyle more of their waste ?
The amount of waste from home (
in England this is known as Household waste as opposed to waste from homes )is in certain developed countries, so huge that the food wasted could fed some entire populations. Recycle (
recycling)is a real issue of our time, and we have to solve it before it’s too late. However, the question is : could it be a viable solution to make recycling a legal requirement ?
The way governments currently manage recycling is the following (
Governments currently manage recycling infusing the following methods)(: they suggest people to recycle, making different colours for dustbins, put advertising on the streets or at TV, for instance. The idea is to sensibilize people to recycle, to convince them that recycle is necessary. But is it working ? Yes, but slowly. The fact is that, most of the time, people are lazy to recycle, so the solution could be to forced them to recycle. To make it a legal requirement.
As a matter of fact, every law has to be controled to be respected. Nevertheless, how would it be possible to respect people privicy and be sure that they will recycle ? Put cameras on every house and send bills when they throw something in the wrong garbage ? To me, the solution is not to oblige (
demand)people to recycle, but this kind of laws can eventually work with companies (
business) . For example, a law can say that’s it’s illegal to refuse a recycle good for a costumer and not to recycle it, giving as an exchange money to the costumer. But this kind of laws could be not accepted from enterprises.
In my opinion, obligating (
forcing)people to recycle is not a good idea. The best idea is to convince them that it’s necessary and not difficult. For example, a startup in France sells a machine which is able to recognize different kind of bottle material (glass,iron , plastic, etc) and does an automatic choose tu put in one dustbin or another. The recycle initiative doesn’t have to come only from costumers but it can come from companies too.
Excellent effort. The amendments I have suggested are minor improvements.
