“RECYCLING IMPLEMENTATION IN BILIRAN”

Gina McCarthy says that “At its core, the issue of a

clean environment is a matter of public health.”
Everyone today has heard of how important it is to
recycle and most cities offer a recycling program, but
what exactly is recycling and how beneficial is it
really to the people in Biliran.Recyling can get pretty
complex- how it interacts with our environment, our
politics and even our human behavior will play a major
role in the future of our beloved Province of Biliran.
According to Saahithi “if no one in the world ever
recycled, there is the risk that our homes and habitats
could be destroyed, we may not have anymore everyday
resources and people could die of toxic gasses”.
Definitely the most important reason to recycle
everyday resources will soon disappear, not only do our
resources rely on recycling but our economy does to.
Landfills are one of the most traditional ways of
disposing garbage, because they release methane and
carbon dioxide as the rubbish decomposes which greatly
contributes to greenhouse gasses and reduces the ozone
layer which protects the earth from the suns harmful
ultraviolet rays. Landfills also take up space that
could be used for housing with our growing population.
If we don’t recycle most of our rubbish will end up in
landfills and enhance these problems.
The word discipline in handling our garbage must
be observe. It will comes first from the people of
Biliran. The local and provincial government should
take measures and implement procedures and programs
regarding Proper Waste and Garbage Disposal not just
everyday garbage collection and dumping in choosen
dumpsites. As a resident or as an admirer of this
beautiful Province, I implore all local and provincial
political leaders to make refush/trash collection and
recycling your number one priority.The people in
Biliran should should focus on their creative energies
in a comprehensive and regular community weekly trash
pick up that will require an investment in numerous
trash bins and refuse trucks development of landfills
and recycling centers.
We all know that there are consequences our
province would face if we don’t recycle. The first
consequences from not recycling would pollution. There
are many different kinds of pollution. For example, the
Styrofoam which carries water or coffee pollutes the
ground by leaking nasty chemicals into the soil. The
air also gets polluted each time you drive your car and
also plastic particles from water bottles and chemicals
pollute our water. Second is the overflow of landfills.
Landfills are designed to deal with waster.However, if
we threw everything away when it could be recycled. The
landfill would fill up and would be unable to cope with
this large load. It would also create unpleasant smells
and end up being toxic from all the harmful chemicals
which is arise from the Styrofoam, batteries,
microwaves, cleaning supplies and other household
supplies.
Ladies and gentlemen. Biliran is truly a hidden gem
and worth the effort of everyone to show off it’s
beauty to the rest of the world. That’s all THANK YOU!
