I have a family of 4 and we have anywhere from 13 to 26 gallons of trash a day. This is so sad. Why do we have so much garbage. I just feel like we are not being effecient with our garbage and we are polluting the earth. I need to find something better to do with our garbage. What about you?

Hello baileycows! I am also have a very big family and we did try to do some recyle instead of throwing it, if it is still ok we keep it for another good use maybe in different way.That would help to our mother nature. i did not really know how much garbage we have in a day but i would say it is depend on occassion of the day, some days we do have a lot, and there are days that is just ok. And we should be concern about it and act something nice to the earth. And one way I can think of is, we should eliminate buy or use something that would cause to much of a garbage. Because if no one buys it, then, the maker has no reason to keep producing it. Just a thought.
