WHY SHOULD WE RECYCLE?

Firstly, in order to help heal Mother Earth everyone on of us need to reduce our garbage load i.e. ‘Carbon footprint’.

One of the ways to do this is ‘recycling’. 

By not separating and recycling we are overloading the Mother Earth.  Everything then goes and gets thrown into the already full landfills.    

Landfills are actually huge holes made in Mother Earth. So basically, what we are doing is burying our garbage into Mother Earth and hoping it will all go away. But actually it can’t since most of the garbage is manmade ‘plastic’ – which of course - non bio-degradable.

And since we are now running out of landfill space – the garbage is being deposited into the ocean – example: the Great Pacific garbage patch and many others and we are already aware of the effect and damage this is causing on the Marine mammals. 
Lets all try our best to help heal our Mother Earth by doing our bit - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle - the best way forward...

Plastic bag issue at the shopping counter …

Remember, once you accept that bag, you are now liable for the rest of its future (will you hide it away in the cupboard or will you pass it onto to someone else or reuse it or will it go straight into the bin?  


Whichever route we take…it will end up in a landfill-further sickening Mother Earth or our precious oceans. 

Therefore, by accepting that plastic bag we are inviting more problems and hurting Mother Earth further, so the ‘ball’, okay, should i say... the ‘plastic bag’ lies in our hands…

Please, let's say “No thank you” to the use of plastic bags/packets!
