(2.5 pts) We know that the problem is that there is too much garbage, and no place to put all of it. We need to reduce the amount of garbage that we put it into landfills. There are several ways we can reduce the amount of garbage we put it into landfill. The best way is to reduce the size of the containers we use. This means that we need to make containers smaller. These days, many things you buy in the store come inside a lot of paper and plastic. These paper and plastic containers make a lot of garbage. Some companies have started to make their containers smaller. If we make all of our containers smaller – smaller , thinner, lighter – we will have less garbage.
