Zero waste is generating less waste and reprocessing of waste for use in new products, producing reusable and decomposable products, and getting rid of unnecessary packaging. Zero Waste plays a big role in our society since it¡¯s the backbone of making the world green and creating a waste-free life. Although it has a favorable impact on people¡¯s lives and the environment, there are some drawbacks to living a zero-waste lifestyle. Advantages; *Reducing climate change impact through recycling, reducing, and reusing. *Minimizing the amount of waste that is harming the planet. *Producing higher quality items that are designed to last longer. *Building a more sustainable society. *Creating jobs through collecting and handling recyclable materials, composting, etc. Disadvantages; *Not all products having zero waste alternative. *Requiring more expensive products which can be super hard to find. *Taking time and energy to lead a zero-waste lifestyle. Without a doubt, the benefits of zero waste outweigh the downside. Instead of paying attention to its negative, it¡¯s better to take any action to protect our Earth for ourselves and future generations making at least brave steps like refusing non-biodegradable plastic or recycling what we have. |
