Hey you guys, i need a little help on ecology!!! ok in my bio class we are supposed to do a project on ecology! we have to go around looking for problems in my community! well i cant find any and i don’t know what to do! i live in brooklyn ny near mill basin. ( its around kings plaza) i cant use anything about recycling of littering. plzzz guys i need some helppp thankssssss a ton

Example what if glass were put into a paper bin? Would the entire batch be rendered useless for recycling and trashed? Or is there a way to remove it?

Which do you feel is more important? Conserving water during a drought and foregoing recycling items that must be washed or rinsed out prior to recycling, or, using scarce water resources to prevent potential recyclables from taking space in a landfill?

Which is most important?

Its about litter and recycling, i’m including a skit, pictures, a guessing game on bio-degradablity and an interview with a neighbor. Any other ideas (that take about half a minute) would help a TONNE!!!
and i HAVE to have all those icebreakers lol

If we continue to raise awareness about garbage pollution,how much better will the earth become in the futu?
instead of the negative things that can happen to our earth in the future, if we continue to recycling, raise garbage pollution awareness, find ways to reduce garbage, etc. what are possible benefits for the earth in the future? how much of an impact will our efforts make?

For example, it’s a foregone conclustion that most recycling incurs a lot more cost than it provides a benefit. And if the U.S. were to follow the Kyoto accord, it would spend untold billions to make a statistically insignificant change in global temperature. Should I consider costs when deciding whether to be green, or does politicial correctness and green hysteria require me to consider only the benefits?

I was wondering…since we are obviously polluting our selves off of our planet…slowly but surly…..and the government is supposedly so concerned about it…..WHY ARE THERE STILL STATES THAT DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN RECYCLING????

I looked for a list of the states who do not recycle and couldnt find one but I travel to Tenn often and know that Tenn doesnt do its share in recyling. Everyone throws away plastic bottles, glass bottles, and cans…everyone in Tenn just throws them into the freaking garbage. INTO THE GARBAGE!
So what gives? If the government is as concerned about the planet that we are slowly killing…why does the government not MANDATE every single state to recycle?
Another thing I thought about…you know how everyone is talking about plastic water bottles? Wouldnt it be a GREAT IDEA if the bottle return machines at grocery stores accepted the water bottles?! Even tho they wouldnt give money for returning them-it would be a great outlet to recycle them!

I’m looking for some short recycling quotes, actually just one.
It’s for my art project, on recyling.
It’s fine if it’s copied, just make sure the author’s name is there, if there isn’t or you don’t know, jsut say unknown!
Thanks!!!

Weve been told for years to recycle but ive done research that proves its a bad Idea. And it cost 5 times more than garbage 1 ton of trash cost 12 dollars with recyling cost 64 dollars a ton pluss the polution of tansporting out of the local area to the factory and most of what you get is junk because you can make new plastic paper and other stuff for half of what the recycling plants charge i herd its good to reyuse alminum because it is in high demand right now . aI feel it is just pouint less bissey work the goverment does to keep people happy because half of it get thrown away any ways. And it also cost tax payers Billions of dollars every year

I need help…i go to bishop amat high and we re trying a recycling program….but the thing is we don’t know any special recyling places that may or may not pick up our cans, bottles, and paper…please i need your help!!!!!
