  • The girls on Bamyan's football team are between 12 and 20 years of age. All of them have experienced disrespect and violence at home.

    I am learning more about women rights right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is: Is there still domestic violence? I was researching this question online, and this article caught my attention because it talks how women are being abuse around the world. "The girls on Bamyan's football team are between 12 and 20 years of age. All of them have experienced disrespect and violence at home." The quote i chose here is basically saying that at a very young age they are being abuse. I think this is wrong because everyone should have freedom. It makes me wonder if everyone is like this around the world. Domestic violence is a crime and that is wrong. The people who actually does this should put in jail.

  • Recyclable materials include many kinds of glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics. Although similar in effect, the composting or other reuse of biodegradable waste – such as food or garden waste – is not typically considered recycling.[2] Materials to be recycled are either brought to a collection center or picked up from the curbside, then sorted, cleaned, and reprocessed into new materials bound for manufacturing.

      I think this imporant because people can recycle small things that they use everyday
  • In a strict sense, recycling of a material would produce a fresh supply of the same material, for example used office paper to more office paper, or used foamed polystyrene to more polystyrene. However, this is often difficult or too expensive (compared with producing the same product from raw materials or other sources), so "recycling" of many products or materials involves their reuse in producing different materials (e.g., cardboard) instea

      I think he mean that we can reuse simple stuff.Like if we buy recycle paper we pay less. If you use recycle stuff you are helping our enviroment
  • Another form of recycling is the salvage of certain materials from complex products, either due to their intrinsic value (e.g., lead from car batteries, or gold from computer components), or due to their

      I wonder what he mean by salvage

  • hazardous nature (e.g., removal and reuse of mercury from various items).
  • Critics dispute the net economic and environmental benefits of recycling over its costs, and suggest that proponents of recycling often make matters worse and suffer from confirmation bias.

      I think this is very important because recycling can be bad OMG
  • Specifically, critics argue that the costs and energy used in collection and transportation detract from (and outweigh) the costs and energy saved in the production process; also that the jobs produced by the recycling industry can be a poor trade for the jobs lost in logging, mining, and other industries associated with virgin production; and that materials such as paper pulp can only be recycled a few times before material degradation prevents further recycling. Proponents of recycling dispute each of these claims, and the validity of arguments from both sides has led to enduring controversy. Contents [hide]

      recycling vis good but it can be bad because of the transportation and the job it's of waste of money HAHAHA
  • Recycling has been a common practice for most of human history, with recorded advocates as far back as Plato in 400 BC. During periods when resources were scarce, archaeological studies of ancient waste dumps show less household waste (such as ash, broken tools and pottery)—implying more waste was being recycled in the absence of new material.[3]

      another source said that centries ago that their use to be less was as now. Interesting as evolution came people change to worse or good
  • In pre-industrial times, there is evidence of scrap bronze and other metals being collected in Europe and melted down for perpetual reuse.[4] In Britain dust and ash from wood and coal fires was collected by 'dustmen' and downcycled as a base material used in brick making. The main driver for these types of recycling was the economic advantage of obtaining recycled feedstock instead of acquiring virgin material, as well as a lack of public waste removal in ever more densely populated areas.[3] In 1813, Benjamin Law developed the process of turning rags into 'shoddy' and 'mungo' wool in Batley, Yorkshire. This material combined recycled fibres with virgin wool. The West Yorkshire shoddy industry in towns such as Batley and Dewsbury, lasted from the early 19c to at least the First World War

      I wonder why they say that because I though that indrustrial revolution was a pollution time
  • For a recycling program to work, having a large, stable supply of recyclable material is crucial. Three legislative options have been used to create such a supply: mandatory recycling collection, container deposit legislation, and refuse bans

      he mean thjis that we shou;d use less things if we want to recycle.
  • Governments have used their own purchasing power to increase recycling demand through what are called "procurement policies".

    I am learning more about recycle right now, and in particular what I 'm wondering about is:Why people don't like to recycle? I was researching this question online, and this poem caught my attention because I really like it. "Please Recycle by Erin Michele Pacey Please recycle the love that we share... Please recycle the time that we spend together... Please recycle our freedom... Please recycle our friendship... Please recycle my life... Please recycle yourself... Please recycle me... Please recycle us." The poem I chose here is basically saying that we should recycle if we want our life to be great. I think this is strong Please because.....It makes me wonder that why do we have to beg for people to do there good.

    I am learning more about recycling right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is why people don't like to recycle. I was researching this question online, and this article caught my attention because it talks about how supermarkets have big responsibilities on this. "Of course it would be easy for stores to claim that in a recession they have had to put ecofriendly measures on hold to prevent passing costs on to consumers. As the Consumer Focus survey shows, however, more than half of shoppers are actively purchasing more environmentally responsible goods than they were two years ago. Over 70 per cent say they want help from their supermarkets in making better-informed choices."
