 * Recycling**

Nicholas G

Many people are forgetting to recycle and are throwing everything in the garbage. This is becoming a problem because the garbage is taking up a lot of space. There are people who are helping with this problem by making new ways to get rid of garbage without pollution. One of the newest ways-using a plasma torch to melt garbage-is getting rid of garbage without pollution and producing profitable materials. Unfortunately, it is still being tested. Also, in Switzerland, people are charged for every bag of garbage, so they recycle everything

Script

__**Act 1**__ Nicholas: Many people are forgetting to recycle, and this may become a serious problem in the future. More landfills are needed to contain all the garbage. Landfills are taking up the space we could be living in right now. The garbage decomposes, but garbage comes in too quick. People should start to do something about this. Instead, most people are ignoring it. __**Act 2**__ Nicholas: People are ignoring this because they don’t believe that it is as big of a problem as other ones, like global warming, or world hunger, but I believe that this is a serious problem that can become worse in the future. Fortunately, there are ways to help stop it. A new invention, the plasma torch, will get rid of garbage, produce profitable materials, and leave no pollution. In Switzerland, people are charged for every bag of garbage, so they recycle everything. __**Act 3**__ Nicholas: Recycling can fix this problem, and also some other ones. By making the materials into other things, we won’t be filling up landfills, and we won’t need to waste our resources to make more. If we tell other people about this, they will start recycling and, eventually this problem will be gone, and hopefully, gone forever.
