P2W8: Less Waste
backThe Big Picture
Every year, humans create more than 2 billion tons of waste, thatโs how much waste we make in just one year! The problem is growing, and here are some of the biggest challenges:
Landfills:
- Most trash goes to landfills
, but landfills take up a lot of space
and release harmful gases like methane
, which causes climate change
.
- Some landfills leak into the soil and water
, harming plants
, animals
, and even humans
.
Ocean Plastics:
- Every year, 8 million tons of plastic end up in the ocean
. Thatโs like dumping one garbage truck
full of plastic into the water every minute!
- Plastic harms sea animals
, who often mistake it for food
.
E-Waste (Electronic Waste):
- Old phones
, computers
, and TVs
are often thrown away instead of recycled
.
- E-waste contains harmful chemicals
that can leak into the soil and water
, causing pollution.
Food Waste:
- About one-third of all food produced is wasted
. Thatโs enough food to feed 2 billion people every year!
- Wasted food rots in landfills
and releases methane
, contributing to climate change
.
