Earth Day: Do you Know where your Garbage goes?

Earth is the only liveable planet that human beings/homo sapians can survive. If we do not take care of it, one day, we are going to pay a heavy price for it. Already, several countries are experiencing the impact of global warming. 
Asian countries are affected by floods and Australia from drought. Scientists raised their concerns on global warming which increased the number of natural disasters. 


I was shocked that the garbage patch, the size of two US state, Texas was found in the pacific ocean. Many birds, turtles and fishes had died from eating the plastics bags, bottle caps that people threw away. 


What can we do to help save the environment? I believe we should try to consume less by not buying the latest gadgets unnecessary. If possible, try to use the product until it spoil. 


Is bottle drinks necessary? How about having refill stations for people to buy the drinks? In this way, thousands or even millions of bottles are reduced a day. 


From Wiki: Earth Day is a day that is intended to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's natural environment. Earth Day was founded by United States Senator Gaylord Nelson as an environmental teach-in first held on April 22, 1970.
