After reading the Energy & Environment article in the New Your Times, I thought, about when I go home on weekends and, I always see trash laying on the side of the road or interstate. And I think to myself is it that hard to throw your garbage away when you get home. Some people say they don’t wasn’t to pay for the trash bags, but there are garbage’s all over. Wal-mart has no got smart and put garbage cans out in the parking lot so you don’t even have to walk that far to throw your McDonalds bag away. To me I think people are just getting lazy.
The article talks about a way to get children involved with going green. F. A. O. Schwarz has created a new toy called Peat the Penguin. The soy fibered plush toy teaches green lesson and “is an ardent supporter of recycling, reusing and reducing waste.” (Kaufman, para 4)
PepsiCo. Is also created the “dream machines” which will recycle kiosks. The machine is to increase the recycling rate of beverage containers by about 36 percent nationwide. According to Pepsi more than 200 billion beverage containers are produced in the United States each year, filled with PepsiCo products like Mountain Dew and Aquafina.
