I chose leakage from landfills because it's very important to tell people about. I also chose leakage from landfills because it's very interesting to learn about.
Water Pollution and Leakage from Landfills
By Silvia
What if one day you see trash leaking out of a landfill? Isn’t that’s horrible? We make more trash every day and you might not realize it but every day in the U.S.A. everybody throws away more trash than two soccer stadiums! A landfill can’t hold all that trash.
Did you know there are more than ten toxic gases released by landfills? In all landfills trash is dumped in huge piles. When trash leaks underground it travels in our groundwater and ends up in the ocean! This is a problem for animals, humans and plants.
We can fix this problem by making landfills stronger and better. We also can fix this problem by reducing, reusing and recycling so less trash goes to landfills. We can also buy things with less packaging. Whatever you do, don’t make more pollution and take my advice!
