18. Do we have a throw-away society? (360)

18. Do we have a throw-away society?

What does it mean throw-away? It's something new for me and I have a real difficulty to lighting this to topic. Vocabulary gives us explanation about throw-away that when something was used and afterwards was thrown to the dustbin.

Mankind always throw result of its living outside. Because of this we can find out how people live many years ago.

When I was outdoors with my parents they taught me to gather all our lunch remains and dug the hole with the spade and bury it there. Thus we try to show for another hikes, or rather to conceal from them that we was there. But essence of this small story that even at that age I noticed how many things remains after us and how it is not easy to hide them from another people and thereby preserve nature from contamination.

I remember time when we used small, transparent, polyethylene bags for different domestic purpose and wash it after using. They were very strong in comparison with the modern one which is totally disposable and so thin that it is impossible to use it twice. We throw them away after first utilisation. I even don't bother to unbind it up and pounce it severely and without regret. Why I should be, this tiny bag have just fulfilled its role and will be thrown anyway.

Nature of economic is that if it doesn't produce and sell it doesn't develop. On the other hand of producing is consumption. If you don't consume your producing became weak and economic fail. I the previous time when there was another way of relationship was lucrative to produce eternal thing big, gross, heavy and so on. On that technology was weak that was another way why people produced rough and reliable things.

Now-a-day technology have changed all, our production, selling and consumption. Technology developed so quickly that if you produce something ground and expensive after some time it will be no modern and out-of-date even if their appearance would be like brand new. Such technology development to my mind was the cause of that reason why our mankind slowly but with confidence appears throw-away society.
