Garbage is a serious problem in the United States. Every year, Americans produce

308 billion pounds of garbage (about 140 billion kilos). A lot of garbage goes into

landfills, but there are not enough landfills for all the garbage.

One answer to the garbage problem is recycling. About half of all the garbage in the

USA can be recycled and used again. Recycling helps people solve the landfill problem

and save natural resources. For examples, tires can be recycled to make pipes and floor

coverings; glass is collected and sent to the factories to make into new glassware.

Moreover, household and garden wastes are collected to make compost.

Therefore, everybody should know how to protect the environment and save natural

resources.
