 Forty percent of waterways in the US have become undrinkable.

I think that this is one of the most alarming data that represents the results of our
economy and policy about production and commerce. Due to the discharges of the
factories, rivers and lake have become undrinkable and the most are almost
unpopulated by the fishes that died or lost their habitat.

 We each see more advertisements in one year than a people 50 years ago saw
in a lifetime.
Everywhere we go, everyone we meet, everything we see has advertisements.
Because everywhere we go, we see signs prompting some product, everyone we meet
has a t-shirt with a brand, and that’s a form of advertisement! We can see
advertisements everywhere: on our smartphone, on our laptop or also ourselves! For
example, when we read or surf in the net.

 In the U.S., industry admits to releasing over 4 billion pounds of toxic


chemicals a year.
I do think that in 2019 can exist a government that allow to use so much chemicals as
the American one. It’s proved that those chemicals release toxic substances which
damage the humans. Then we must care of what we buy and try to buy the one with
less chemicals in it.

 Each person in the United States makes 4 1/2 pounds of garbage a day.14 That
is twice what we each made thirty years ago.
That’s a consequence of our actions. If we buy more than the past, we also produce
more garbage than the past. But the problem is that we buy often useless thing that
we throw away. So we produce more garbage and we produce it more often.

 In the past three decades, one-third of the planet’s natural resources base have
been consumed.
This data shows us the past but also the future. What we’ll be doing without
resources? If we don’t convert our economic system on natural resources, soon we’ll
finish them and then there will be wars, famine, death… so I think it’s very important
to prevent this and invest on new resources.
