As I explained before about the basic information about soil pollution, now I will introduce what I did last year about reducing the usage of disposable resources. First, I did campaign with my friends at my school, Itaewoon, and Insadong to investigate how many people know the actual decomposition period of disposable resources. Additionally, I collected disposable water cups that were used by teachers and students with my friends to have an experiment. We ripped all the collected water cups and soaked them in the water for 30 minutes. When they were trying to be crinkled and curled, we separated the paper part and vinyl part. Then we ground the paper part by using mixer and put it on the shelf with a circle shape. After few days, we got a result that all the ripped papers were dried and became a recycled paper. Through all these activities, I recognized that many people don't have interest in minor environment issue not a big issue, like a global warming and restoring used paper cup into new paper needs lots of time to spend and sustained efforts. |

Thanks for sharing the interesting experiment. Generally people are not interested in minor environment issues but then environmentalists like you and we have to play our part to spread awareness and generate interest in them as you did.

Your experiment is interesting. It may be explored further on a large scale. Paper cups are used in large numbers.
Thanks for reporting.
