If she has taken a minute to put the empty Cheetos bag in a recycle bin, if the owners of that 45,000 tons of plastic recycled them, then the oceans would not be so heavily polluted, the 30,000 seal bodies would not be lying dead on the coast. Recycling is one of the answers, the cures to water pollution.
Recycling can also reduce air pollution.

Recycling has and will continue to help us control air and water pollution. We hunted and fished everyday for food. I looked at my father then at the land, trying to imagine a dense, handsome jungle. All I could see were red tiled houses, one emerging after another.
