Concept in Definition ABC

The term residue (in its plural, residues) is a term that is normally used to designate all those remains and surpluses that remain of the consumption that human beings do on a daily basis.

From this same term arises the residual adjective that refers to some type of element or secondary circumstance, which appears as collateral or secondary consequence of something main, for example when talking about residual expenses, are the expenses that remain after certain act.

The notion of waste can be applied to a myriad of elements or situations of everyday life, as long as the idea is given that something is discarded because it is not considered useful. However, the case in which the idea of ​​residuals is used most often is when it is done reference to the elements that the human being in his daily life discards and throws away because they are not useful or essential for her.

The path of waste once they leave home and the problems they generate in the environment and in terms of deposits

The immediate destination of the waste is the garbage that is in every house, or in public spaces.
Then, they are taken to the street, contained in a bag, and thrown in special containers intended for this purpose. for waste pickers to remove and then continue a processing procedure in plants specialized.

The issue of waste is a major concern today for two reasons: first, the population Today it is much higher than at any other time in history, which means that the more population there is, the more waste will be produced.
This not only increased the amount of waste produced but also the difficulty of processing.

On the other hand, a large part of that world population consumes enormous amounts of products that instead of being consumed in a direct and natural way, they have endless packages, packaging and protection systems that make them wear out more natural resources and that, at the same time, the discarded is much more.

The amount of waste that humans generate today limits the possibilities of recovery (since it can never be recover or recycle everything) and the spaces designated to store or bury such items are increasingly scarce.
There are reserves destined for their burial, but of course, each time they have less space in relation to the amount that there is to deposit.

The problem of waste is then extended to the whole world, especially to large cities, which is where it is produced most.

Solutions: garbage sorting and recycling of some materials

Municipal and national governments have started awareness campaigns for a few years with the aim of classifying garbage in its first stage waste, so that what finally reaches the final stage is necessarily discarded. In the middle of the road there will be all those plausible recycled materials, and for example, the student is being educated. citizen in this aspect of recycling.

It is suggested to separate the garbage before being thrown into the baskets, placing recyclable waste in special and recognizable bags, and in other bags those waste that they are not.
This practice not only favors recycling, but also helps reduce waste. environmental impact that is generating garbage in many parts of the world.

Sheets of paper, cardboard, glass, are materials that can be recycled and reused, and recycling campaigns are aimed at them.
Approximately 90% of our waste can be recycled and in the specific case of paper, indiscriminate felling of trees is avoided. with the mission of generating more and more paper... Let us bear in mind that unfortunately there are few that simultaneously generate a coherent and satisfactory process from reforestation of trees.

Those materials that are not possible to recycle are generically called garbage, while other recyclable materials.
