SOME PEOPLE CLAIM THAT NOT ENOUGH WASTE FROM HOMES IS RECYCLED.THEY SAY THAT THE ONLY WAY TO INCREASE RECYCLING IS FOR GOVERNMENTS TO MAKE IT A LEGAL REQUIREMENT.TO WHAT EXTENT DO YOU THINK LAWS ARE NEEDED TO MAKE PEOPLE RECYCLE MORE OF THEIR WASTES ?

HOUSEHOLD WASTES IS BECOMING A MAJOR ISSUE IN PEOPLE'S LIFE, SINCE IT IS NOT RECYCLED PROPERLY. HOWEVER, A SIGNIFICANT PROPORTION OF SOCIETY IS OF THE VIEW THAT GOVERNMENT SHOULD MAKE IT A LEGAL REQUIREMENT. ALTHOUGH I DO NOT AGREE THAT A RECYCLING LAW IS THE ONLY MEASURE THAT GOVERNMENT SHOULD TAKE. IN MY VIEW, A NEW RECYCLING LAW WOULD BE JUST ONE POSSIBLE WAY TO TACKLE THE WASTE PROBLEMS. GOVERNMENTS COULD MAKE IT A LEGAL OBLIGATION FOR HOUSEHOLDERS TO SEPERATE ALL WASTES IN SEPERATE BINS. THERE SHOULD BE PUNISHMENTS FOR PEOPLE WHO FAIL TO OBEY THIS LAW, RANGING FROM A SMALL FINE TO COMMUNITYSERVICE, OR EVEN PRISON SENTENCES FOR REPEAT OFFENDERS. THIS MEASURES WOULD ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO OBEY THE RECYCLING LAWS. AS A RESULT, THE IMPROVED BEHAVIOUR OF HOUSEHOLDERS WOULD LEAD TO A CLEAN, WASTE-FREE ENVIRONMENT FOR EVERYONE. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE THAT GOVERNMENTS SHOULD DO MORE THAN SIMPLY INTRODUCING A RECYCLING LAW. FOR EXAMPLE, CHILDREN SHOULD BE TAUGHT ABOUT RECYCLING IN SCHOOLS AND HOMEOWNERS SHOULD BE INFORMED ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF HOUSEHOLD WASTES. MOREOVER, GOVERNMENTS SHOULD IMPLEMENT STRICTER REGULATIONS FOR THE COMPANIES THAT PRODUCE PACKAGING HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTS. MONEY SHOULD BE SPENT MORE To IMPROVE RECYCLING FACILITIES, SO THAT THE WASTE IS PROCESSED MORE EFFECTIVELY WHETHER IT IS NOT RECYCLED PROPERLY AT HOME. TO SUM UP, IT IS NOT ONLY THE DUTY OF GOVERNMENT BUT ALSO OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO RECYCLE THE WASTEIN ORDER TO GET A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT.
