Blog post 7

       I would like this post to be something else other than just the building of urbanization and construction. So let’s think about how the small things affect climate change? I got one, thrash. So thrash can come in many sizes from tiny to enormous but if we don’t recycle it then it becomes trash. Well if you didn’t know, thrash just doesn’t just disappear in the back of the garbage truck but It has to be taken somewhere and eventually it will go away. So the place that the thrash goes to is called a landfill which is usually a huge piece of land that is just filled with nothing but thrash. This is why we need to start recycling what we can because if we keep throwing thrash away then we will be forced to use more land as a landfill site. Solid landfills are the single largest man made source of methane gas in the United States. If you didn’t know methane is a power green house gas that is 23 times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than any other green house gas. -Ky’on Bass
