Landfill Problem And Recycling
A landfill is a form of waste management that can
damage the quality of our air, water and land.
The organic wastes that landfills decompose
produce methane and other harmful gases which,
when released to the air, contributes to global
warming. When water passes through
landfill wastes, it forms leachate that can
contaminate ground water and surfaces nearby.
Hazardous substances can also penetrate the
surrounding soil via landfill gas and leachate.

The Problem with Landfills
  • The three major problems with regards to
    landfills are leachate, toxins and greenhouse
    gases.
  • Leachate- Leachate is the liquid that is formed
    when waste breaks down. It is highly toxic and
    can pollute land, water and waterways.
  • Toxins Non-biodegradable wastes contain a lot
    of toxic substances that over time contaminate
    the soil and ground water. Electronic wastes, for
    example, contain mercury, arsenic, lead and
    acids.
  • Greenhouse gas Food scraps and other
    biodegradable wastes are generally covered and
    compacted when dumped in a landfill. They break
    down and eventually release methane, a greenhouse
    gas that is more potent than carbon dioxide.
    Methane is dangerous for climate change and
    global warming. It is also flammable and can be
    hazardous if allowed to build up. Composting of
    food scraps help eliminate this problem.

How to Avoid Sitting Down too Much?
  • Being active is an important part of a healthy
    lifestyle, but it is an alarming fact that more
    than half of our population never engage in
    vigorous physical activity on a regular basis. 
  • Even those who work behind a desk can do these
    simple things to improve everyday activity and
    movement.
  • Instead of sending an email, walk across the room
    or hall and talk to your co-worker.
  • Use the stairs instead of the elevator or lift.
  • Use an exercise ball for a chair. This engages
    your core muscles and helps improve balance and
    flexibility.
