Garbage Service need Improvement

There have been many complaints recently about the ABC garbage
collection service. The official department has agreed that the service
needs improvement. But nothing has been done!

In some streets the garbage is collected only once a month because the
workmen are not supervised. In other streets, collection in more frequent
but half of the garbage is left in the road. The workmen are too lazy to
pick it up and put it in the trucks.

In some parts of the colony, house-holders are dumping their garbage on


the waste land. This is dangerous and an unhealthy to do. These `dumps
may catch fire and they will certainly attract rats and flies.
It is the duty of the official department to collect all the garbage efficiently
and regularly

garbage, surely that comes to mind is a pile of waste that causes a very
stinging smell. But if left by the government or workers and waste
residents can bring a bad impact on human health conditions and the
surrounding environment.

contribute to accelerate global warming, because waste can produce
methane gas (CH4) that can damage the earth's atmosphere. On average
each one ton of solid waste generates 50 kg of methane gas. The
methane gas itself has a destructive force up to 20-30 times greater than
carbon dioxide (CO2). Methane gas is in the atmosphere for about 7-10
years and can increase the temperature around 1.30C per year.
Reiteration :

So rubbish is one source of problems on earth in order to reduce the


government should be more firm to the workers in charge of cleaning the
garbage and as a good citizen do not throw garbage carelessly
