Garbage is an unpleasant thing, and usually we want to get rid of it as soon as possible. Throwing our daily household rubbish into the nearest container in the yard or down the garbage chute, we forget about its existence forever. However, having disappeared from our field of vision, garbage, alas, does not disappear without a trace ... It accumulates in giant piles in garbage dumps near big cities - and there are more and more such dumps all over the world. It rolls along the shores of the seas and oceans, where it is carried by the surf. It lies in vaults underground, at the risk of contaminating the soil and groundwater with toxic substances.
In recent years, the problem of garbage has become so acute all over the world that it is no longer possible to turn a blind eye to it. And if you don’t tackle it now, then very soon our planet may turn into a big garbage dump, on which there will simply be no place for normal life…
So why and since when did we start producing such an incredible amount of garbage? And what can each of us do today to change the situation for the better? All this is told in the book of the German artist Gerda Reidt "Garbage. All about the most unpleasant thing in the world." The essence of the problem is presented here intelligibly, consistently and logically. The author does not waste unnecessary words and does not abuse complex concepts and terms, preferring to supplement his story with convincing illustrations that make the reader seriously feel the "garbage problem", realize its importance and inevitability for each of us.
The book will help instill new healthy habits in today's children and grow them into truly responsible consumers who will become critical of advertising, buy only what they really need, learn to carefully read the signs on packages, refuse to use single-use plastic bags and utensils. . By the way, it’s not too late for adults to cultivate all these and many other useful habits that the book tells about, because, it turns out, they are useful not only for the environment, but also for the family budget!
