The world is deteriorating, as a result of decisions we have made.  Every year, thousands of pounds of trash are deposited in landfills across the United States.  However, because of recent advances in technology, more and more of this trash can be diverted away from landfills by simple consumer decisions.  The short version: choices you make can save trash from landfills.  People are always looking for simple ways they can help, ways they can be part of the movement.  The decisions that we make can add up to have huge impacts.  Take water bottles for instance:

It's estimated that the average American drinks 167 bottles of bottled water each year.  Simply by using a reusable water bottle instead of purchasing plastic bottled water, you can help save these 167 bottles from going to the landfill.
