Save our one and only Earth

Today in school I learned that the Earth is getting more closer to its end. And if scientists don't come up with something, it is going to end.. with us..

We also found out that plastic is able to be recycled till maximum 7 times. After that, plastic cannot be recycled anymore.

Plastic Identification Code:


















5th: Polypropylene (PP)






6th: Polystyrene (PS)





7th: Other (often polycarbonate or ABS)
Since after the 7th recycle, they can not recycle it anymore. And where will we put those broken waste 07 products? We cant burn them that's for sure. It will give off poisonous gas once burned. People may think to send them into space through a rocket but just think, how much does it cost to launch a rocket even to the moon? So the waste of plastic materials just keep increasing as it also takes lots of space. Soon enough, Earth will have no more space to keep up the space for plastic waste. So instead of using plastic materials such as plastic bags and etc, try using cloth products and other recyclable materials.
Some materials such as aluminium is scarce nowadays. Recycle them so that we can reduce pollution, and save our natural resources. By recycling, we not only can save the environment,we also can slow down the global warming rate and buy more time for scientists to come up with something that will help with this problem. So, recycling is a must now. Live with it, we can not run away from the future that awaits us now. One last advice:
Recycle. Think before you throw. The future's choice is in our hands. Choose well, or suffer the consequences. The Earth we live in, we only have one. The Earth's future, our future.
