Take a photo of trash-Maria K

I'm Maria Karropoulou.I am from Greece.This photo was taken by me in the street of my neighborhood.At this photo we can see garbage in plastic bags.The bin is full of garbage. The kind of materials can be seen in the photo are plastic, cartons, aluminum, paper, glass... Maybe in the bags there are food or clothes. All those things cause infection and they are not good for enviroment.We must do something to restrict the garbage!

Take a photo of trash-Konstantina


Hi!
My name is Konstantina Florou, I'm 13 years old and i live in Drama, a small town north of Greece . I want to show you this foto to tell you that we must take care the environment. One basic thing that everyone could start with, is to put the rubbish in to the bins only the hours that the employees who pick up the rubbish are in work .

Take a photo of trash -Dimitra


Hello,
I’m Dimitra  , I’m 14 years old and I’m from Greece. I live in Drama a town of  Greece. Unfortunately, the town council doesn’t pay its employees to pick up the rubbish. So , when the bins are filled up the residents throw their rubbish on the streets.  As a result our town looks polluted, neglected and dirty!!!

Why reduce waste? Propose some ways!

watch the following funny video where 2 recycled dolls talk about waste reduction:


In case you do not understand their dialogue, read the following text:


Why reduce waste?
A large percentage of households do not recycle enough and throw everything that they consider “rubbish” into their ordinary bin. However, waste reduction requires more than good recycling habits; the aim of waste reduction is to minimize waste before it is produced! In other words we must try to bring home less products that will end up in the trash bin and to reuse as many items as possible.

How to do that?
Analyze your trash for a few days to get familiar with the stuff you throw out (it might surprise you!) Then, think about how you might reduce your trash by changing some habits. Below there are some suggestions to reduce the amount of material that requires disposal:
  • Buy bulk-packaged items to cut down on individual packaging.
  • Buy products in reusable or recyclable containers.
  • Don’t buy disposable products when you can avoid them.
  • Patronize restaurants and other businesses that use recyclable or biodegradable wrappings.

Now it is your turn to think about ways to reduce waste. Write your suggestion on the comment section below and share your thoughts with your peers!

Take a photo of trash-Thodoris and Koulelis

Hi we are Thodoris and Koulelis. For years now the environment, due to the negative impact of man and reckless behavior, has started the countdown. Few are those who watch over the environment.

The environment is the physical shell that lives every living organism and therefore the destruction would mean that one daylife will be extinguished. There are many ways to protect and not pollute the environment.
  Do not throw trash out, so there are garbage bins!!! There are recycling bins and we can throw recyclable rubbish there!!!
To participate in environmental programs to sensitive about it.
Also we can make holidays green or go green at camp!!!
To use the car less and more public transport, cycling or walking so that we can reduce the pollutants in the atmosphere.

Take a photo of trash-Stella


 
Hi, I’m Stella Kosmidou and I am 14 years old. This is the photo of a recycle bin, which is placed in front of  Drama’s court at Palaiologou street. Many citizens pretend that they want to preserve the city clean by recycling and keeping their trash indoors for the weekend. But look! The bin is overfull. Couldn’t these ‘’conscientious’’ people keep their trash at home for the weekend and throw them out on Monday when the garbage truck could collect them? Not even they didn’t keep their trash at home, moreover, they left them on the pavement where people pass by and stray dogs and cats ‘’ play ‘’ with them, spreading diseases. We shouldn’t blame only the citizens. The authorities have to place more bins in a such populous area in the centre of the town.

Take a photo of air pollution - Cristina


We are always see a smog in sky or grey clouds…

The cloud is visible and felt by all leading to large air pollution

Is relatively low height above the surface.

This is due to exhaust in combination with apnea and sunshine.

This can be harmful for our organization. We must reduce the exhaust.

 All together we can do more!

Take a photo of trash-Tasos

A little about myself!
Hello, my name is Tasos Sahanidis and I come from Greece.

Greece and it’s beauty

This picture was taken in Amolofoi-Kavala.
It is famous for its clean beaches but this picture was taken a long time ago which was dirty back then.
In this picture I can see pieces of wood, lots of plastic cans and a mixture with different types of broken fishing equipment! Most people don’t care about the environment at all. It’s up to us to try to minimize the pollution so that the future generations can still hope for a better future!

TAKE A PHOTO OF TRASH - CHARA

Hello everyone! My name is Chara Soumelidou and I come from Greece. I took this picture while I was jogging at the beach of a village by the sea, called Ierissos in Chalkidiki. Normally, I would describe to you the beauty of the landscape but instead I will talk to you about the garbage that makes this part of the beach look mostly like a dumb. This garbage should be in a rubbish bin, or even better in recycling bins. Although the sea is cleaning itself, we humans continue to push the waste in it. In the picture I can mainly see things made of plastic and plastic needs hundreds of years to break down and become one with the environment. However, nothing is yet lost. It’s never too late to make it up to nature. Besides, where there is a will there is a way. Let’s start recycling now!
