Timed Paragraph

Briefly compare and contrast any two waste disposal schemes(e.g. zero waste and landfilling, landfilling and using incinerators or any other methods you know) and decide which one might be more suitable for your country.

Waste disposal problems can become a serious case in the future since there are a lot of new products coming out day by day. Local authorities are trying to manage waste disposal schemes by using methods such as planning to use zero waste, incinerating, etc. When comparing waste disposal schemes, zero waste method will probably become better than any other. Zero waste is based on the fact that everything we use will be composed of reusable materials. As a result, we can apply a lot of means to turn waste into a profitable resource. Bath councillor Roger Symmonds said that " The word 'zero' is not strictly accurate. It may not be achievable. But if we get anywhere near, then the benefits for health and jobs will be enormous." But the drawback is that every nation needs to collaborate with each other and restrict by means of law and regulation to use reusable resources only for all products .This simply implies that we need to change a lot of current products into new designs which will consume time and money before being successful. On the other hand, if we use incinerators to clear out wastes, there cannot be problems about time and money for developing countries. People can easily use incinerators for a large amount of waste. The disadvantage is that it has much more potential to harm environment. But it has strong benefits for certain waste types such as toxins since high temperature can destroy these kinds. If my country needs to decide between these two methods, using incinerators will be more suitable. Since my country is a developing country, technology and money are main points to consider. Zero wast requires technology, time and money so that it is difficult for developing countries to fulfill these requirements. In conclusion, both methods have their pros and cons, but for the current situation, it will need research and take a lot of time for zero waste to outweigh other methods.
