Garbage is our earth

Garbage and our life are things that can not be separated, everyday as we do our life, we have to face garbage and waste problem. The garbage quantity is increased together along with the growth of population, this problem causes air, soil, and water pollution. According to The Body shop Survey in 2004, the total amount of Jakarta's garbage per day have weight which equals to weight of 6955 elephants and their total amount of plastic-waste can cover for about 2600 football fields, based on this survey, we can conclude that garbage is very serious problem that we have to fix to. For this time, we handle this garbage problem with TPA (Last Dump Pool) with no treatment for the mount up garbage afterwards, there is no processing for this garbage such as recycling.

Garbage is really an "earth's" big chaos if we not deal with it seriously. We can do 3R (reduce, reuse, recycle) to overcome the garbage-problem. Garbage takes the main part of our environment, if we do not care to it, who cares?
