Recycling, landfilling, composting, and incinerating. Each method has its strengths
and weaknesses. Let’s take a quick look at each.
Recycling is the process of turning waste into new materials. For example, used paper
can be turned into paperboard, which can be used to make book covers. Recycling can
reduce pollution, save materials, and lower energy use. Yet, some argue that recycling
wastes energy. They believe

that collecting, processing, and converti g waste uses more

energy than it saves. Still, most people

agree that recycling is better for the planet

than landfilling.
Landfilling is the oldest method of managing waste. In its simplest form, landfilling is
when people bury garbage in a hole. Over time the practice of landfilling has advanced.
Garbage is compacted before it is thrown into the hole. In this way more garbage can fit in
each landfill. Large liners are placed in the bottom of landfills so that toxic garbage juice
doesn't get into the ground water. Sadly, these liners don't always work. Landfills may
pollute the local water supply. Not to mention that all of that garbage stinks. Nobody
wants to live next to a landfill. This makes it hard to find new locations for landfills.
Compositing is when people pile up organic matter, such as food waste, and allow
it to decompose. The product of this decomposition is compost. Compost can be added
to the soil to make the soil richer and better for growing crops. While composting is
easy to do onsite somewhere, like home or school, it's hard to do after the garbage gets all
mixed up. This is because plastic and other inorganic materials must be removed from the
compost pile or they will pollute the soil. There's a lot of plastic in garbage, which makes it
hard to compost on a large scale.
One thing that is easier to do is burning garbage. There are two main ways to incinerate
waste. The first is to create or harvest a fuel from the waste, such as methane gas, and burn
the fuel. The second is to burn the waste directly. The heat from the incineration process
can boil

water, which can power

steam generators. Unfortunately, burning garbage

pollutes the air. Also, some critics worry that incinerators destroy valuable resources that

could be recycled.
Usually, the community in which you live manages waste. Once you put your garbage in
that can, what happens to fit is beyond your control. But you can make choices while it is
still in your possession. You can choose to recycle, you can choose to compost, or you
can choose to let someone else deal with

it. The choice is yours.

One of the most interesting parts of the earth for many people was and continues
to be the beautiful world of the sea. People were always attracted to the mysteries of the
deep waters when they saw a little part of the under water world on television or in
photographs. Due to this intense attraction caused by the mystery of the waters, more
and more people choose to practice scuba diving, which became in time one of the most
popular sports around the world. Scuba diving is a complex sport that requires some

research before being understood at its real value. In order for someone to practice it, it
is required for them to take some courses so accidents can be avoided.
Scuba diving is not only about diving and observing the amazing environment
that exists under the waters. This sport can be transformed into a successful career by

those who are truly passionate about it. At the moment, scuba diving has four main
areas of interest: recreation purposes, commercial purposes, scientific research and
military activity as well. The most frequent reason why people go for scuba diving is
because they want to relax in a special way, by having contact with a less known world.
A great thing about this sport is that it can be practiced anytime around the
year; however, you should choose the summer if you have problems with low
temperatures. Once you take the lessons, you get the basic knowledge before diving,
you should talk to a specialist and obtain quality equipment for this activity. For the
beginning, you can only rent scuba diving equipment, but if you get attached to this
sport, then you will have to purchase one of your own at some moment. Some of the
most important parts of the scuba gear are the mask, the snorkel, the diving suit, the
gloves, the boots and the diving regulator.
If you finally decided to try scuba diving and you already took some scuba
courses then you must be thinking about what location to choose. This is one of the
most difficult decisions to make as our world is filled with numerous destinations,
equally beautiful and interesting. If this passion catches you then you will surely get to
visit more and more amazing locations each year. There is no such thing as the most
beautiful waters to scuba diving in as each part has something to offer and shelters
special creatures that should be observed.
