When throwing away trash, do you know whichbin it should go in? Some of you might not be able to answer this question. Butit's very important to know how to deal with your waste. Not knowing how todeal with waste is harder to save energy and protect the environment.
If you don't deal with your garbage, all of it will go toa landfill(垃圾场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas ofground. The electronic waste you throw away can pollute the soil and groundwater.Other pieces of garbage can be used to make other things if they are properlyrecycled.
Many cities in China have taken actions in recent years.For example, Shanghai announced in July that it would divide the garbage intofour groups: recyclable, hazardous(有害的), wet and dry.
Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be reusedare called recyclable waste.
Hazardous waste includes things like medicine, batteriesand fluorescent bulbs(荧光灯泡). These things are not recyclable.
"Wet" waste is also known as household waste. "Theyare things you don't want but that pigs can eat," Guangzhou Dailyexplained.
Some waste such as plastic bags, beer bottles and otherman-made things will go in the "dry waste" bin.
Many other Chinese cities plan to use this way to dealwith their garbage. Let's encourage each other to deal with our waste well bysorting it to protect the environment.
