Did you know that...? the UK produces more than 100 million tons of waste every year? One ton is about the weight of a small car.
In Culiacán we produce 700 tons which is approximately the weight of the submarine U505, an old submarine from 1941 which was used in World War 2. This amount of trash produced because 1 person produces about 1.2 kilograms of trash daily.
Did you know that 80 billion pounds of food are thrown away each year in the US? This is equivalent to 1000 Empire State buildings.
In USA and in the whole world people choose to buy things that they don’t need and by that, they are contaminating because for example, let’s say that you buy a whole bunch of food and if you don’t eat it, the food would rot and you would throw it away and you would generate more garbage. That’s something that many people do and not just with food, with clothes too, you buy a shirt and then don’t use it and when you want to use it, it won’t fit you so you throw it away. I bet that it’s clothes you need, but if you are not gonna wear it, don’t buy it because it can be a product of pollution, because not many people donate it. That’s why we should stop buying things we don’t need.
