Ocean Dumping Method

This method is the easiest out of the many methods in waste disposal but, its also the most hated by people especially environmentalists. Dumping waste in the ocean is clearly destroying many aquatic lives. Sure the ocean is vast but soon enough, this kind of method will come to haunt us. Who knows what those chemical wastes can do to aquatic lifeforms. It can either kill them or much worse, mutate them into horrible beasts we see in movies.

Not so lucky fisherman.
As a businessman, I can't really blame them for doing this kind of waste disposal although, I'm not saying I support this method in which I really don't. If you think about it thoroughly, you would be inclined to do it. No expense whatsoever on your part is pretty enticing to a businessman. Most companies fire employees just because they don't have the finance to pay them, how much more if its about dumping waste materials. Money is always the main objective for all companies and that is a fact of life.

Going back, this method for me, is just plain awful. I don't care how they perfectly they did this method, throwing waste in the ocean is a bad idea. I take it back, its a very bad idea. There's just so much to lose, not for those companies but for those small families that feed off the ocean or fishermen. Hopefully with the advancements of technology, this method will be further studied and processed in a way that it cannot harm the ocean and the many creatures that live within it.

Incineration Waste Disposal

The world is ever moving forward and nothing can stop that fact. Moving forward means a lot of changes. Some are good and of course, some are not so good especially in technology. Yes, they are a great help for all of us yet, they also have something that can destroy us in the future. I'm talking about garbage and how waste disposal isn't used properly.

Big companies are now on a fast pace production schedule and that means more trash going our way. Those companies are doing all they can to limit their waste to a minimum using different methods of waste disposal. In Japan, they use incineration as a means to counter waste. Give them a lot of credit, they are quite the innovative.

Incineration Process



When this process was coming out, it still had a negative effect on waste disposal. When the incineration method begins, a huge quantity of energy along with carbon dioxide is released but the smoke along with the pollutants still harmed the environment. If this continues, we will be looking at a great environmental catastrophe. Technology isn't perfect in the beginning, every new thing at any time will have their bad effects. That's just the way it goes really but, in time they were upgraded to versions that are less likely to harm the environment. 

Today, incinerators are built to help the environment although, it is still not 100% clean smoke but that is better than hazarding the environment in a big rate like back in the old days. Although, the burning process still remains the same. Now they added filters and scrubbers. These two make sure that there will be no leakages of poisonous substances, acidic gases and pollutants are released in our atmosphere.

Incineration Process

Hoping the companies doing this method are prioritizing safety above all else. Waste disposal should be taken seriously since it greatly affects us.

Something Out Of Nothing

I've forgotten who said this quote: "A good man can make money from something while a great man can make money from nothing". This is quotation is so true. William Feather stated that "Wealth flows from energy and ideas", this has the same meaning as the first one. People tend to think within the box that they can't see or produce ideas that can generate money.

Take garbage for example, its smelly, dirty, horrible and there's a whole lot more words that can describe it but, thinking of the word profitable along with those nasty words is what a great man is capable of. Don't let the word great ever hinder you, being great at something is what all of us can attain. Famous individuals with a lot of money were not great in the beginning, like everyone else they were struggling people in search of ideas. Check out this guy:



Now, back to the topic at hand. Garbage can be made into a profitable thing. Disregard the garbage collectors since that in itself is already a business. I'm talking about segregating and collection garbage items which can still be recycled and sold to people. The saying that "A persons garbage can be another persons treasure" is the key quote here.

With that in mind, one can make assumptions about how they plan on doing this. That my friends will be your task. All I can say is that you need to keep things in perspective. Not too fast yet no too slow. Let this image be your inspiration.
