Environmental cutbacks

Since the industrial revolution, the amount of consumption and pollution has increased by far. These consumptions can lead to unnatural climate changes, such as global warming. Luckily, many people are doing things to stop this. Things like recycling, power saving and other cutbacks for the environment. Many of the people of Bergen are also doing these measurements to save our environment. Science has shown us that these cutbacks are vital at this point of time, and reductions of these consumptions are one of the top priorities today. 

DID YOU KNOW?

Did you know that over 5% of the carbon dioxide emission is caused by waste, garbage and other leftovers? Although wealthy countries such as Norway, Britain and the USA are causing most of these emissions, sadly, poor, developing countries get most of the fatal consequences.

Waste: Problems to solve

These are some of the problems we are going to try to solve, or at least improve;

-How do people in Bergen sort waste?
-How can we make it easier to recycle in Bergen?
-How do the waste-systems in Bergen work?

During this project, we attend to learn more about how waste has an influence on the people. We want to make the people of Bergen more concerned and aware of what both garbage and pollution does, and what we can do to make a change. 

Green Living: Waste 

Friday we were given the subject "Waste". We are quite satisfied with our topic because we are very committed to waste reduction, environmental protection, recycling and reuse.
