Besides handphone in hand, there is one thing that is difficult to escape from our lives
every day used to
wrap fried food, straw or become part of other things around us
this is plastic
light objects that are strong and practice so that many people like it
but, problems keep coming because of us
now plastic is on the gorund, river and even became a continent on the ocean
now maybe we will be scared
to imagine how much plastic in the world
and how dangerous they are
because it's hard to calculate the actual amount
just imagine like this
every year there are hundreds millions tons of plastic produced
and eight million tons of trash dumped into the ocean
it's like throwing out twenty boeing 737 planes
every hour
and imagine, plastic takes hundreds or even forever to be able to decompose perfectly
that means there will be twelve trillion plastic trash
or equivalent to the weight of burj khalifa building
the most tallest building in the world
in 2050
it makes there are more plastic in the sea than sea animal
so terrible
of course it makes us very afraid
the world ends because of trash
that's not cool at all
so this must be stopped now
because it makes the animals in the wild suffer
because of us
not only that
we are exposed to harm by our own actions
in reality trash is getting smaller can be eaten by fish
and later we will eat the fish too
which will cause disease to us
oke, plastic trash into the wold's major problems
but we are also involved, in reality
indonesia is the second producer of plastic in the world
but if you think the solution is to throw trash in its place
it's already ineffective
now, we have to reduce using plastic
or choose to use plastic that is used repeatedly
to eat and drink
bring a food containers and tumbler that can be used repeatedly
bring your own shopping bags when shopping
avoid to using cotton or canvas objects
if you want to use a plastic bag
dont waste the plastic bag after used
because it can be used again
but even plastic or not
all items have a usage deadline
which must be throw away too
so we have to know the right place to throw it away
remember to throw plastic trash in anorganik place the yellow one
food trash throw in organic place the green one
and toxic materials
like battery, bohlam, ink and so on
in B3 place, the red one
after all, besides to throwing thrash in the usual trash can
now we have to sort out our own trash
and collected in a trash bank
in fact, now trash can become gold
the way is very easy
just bring yiur sorted trash to the closest trash bank
give it to the officer
then weight it and counted
even 2kg of trash
already be a precious metal
oke, now we can choose to collect trash
until it becomes a trash mountain or becomes gold
even though, we can take the scattered garbage
not only makes the environment clean but also be made an investation
so start collecting rubbish around us
then keep it for gold
and as always, thank you.
