01
Plastic Waste
“Plastic Prison: No Way Out”
Single-use plastics — bags, bottles, straws — can take over 400 years to break down. Most are used for minutes, but last forever.
02
Food Waste
“Rotting Resources: Food Gone Foul”
One-third of all food is wasted. In landfills, it doesn’t compost — it emits methane, a potent greenhouse gas.
03
E-Waste
“Toxic Tech: Out of Sight, Out of Control”
Old electronics leak hazardous chemicals like lead and mercury. Only 20% of global e-waste is properly recycled.
04
Textile Waste
“Fast Fashion: Slow Decay”
The average American throws away 81 pounds of clothes a year. Most synthetic fabrics never decompose.
05
Paper & Cardboard
“Paper Trail: Waste by the Ton”
Recyclable but often trashed. Contaminated or discarded paper products pile up fast — over 67 million tons annually in the U.S.
06
Metal & Cans
“Wasted Potential: Metal & Cans”
Millions of aluminum and steel cans end up in landfills every day — even though they’re 100% recyclable. Recycling just one can saves enough energy to power a TV for 3 hours.
07
Household Items
“Bulky Burden: Too Big to Break Down”
Sofas, mattresses, and broken appliances clog landfills. Hard to recycle, easy to dump.
08
Packaging Materials
Bubble wrap, foam, and mixed-material packages — often unrecyclable due to composite materials.
