Story of stuff
The planet is a society is including
all kind of people there are problems solvers and parents, scientist,
working to create a healthier world. Trying their best to save the planet from
pollution and, health from toxic. A job should not be lifted to scientists only,
government regulators or even professional environmental activists.
(Mercola's, 2007). People are on the front lines of pollution
production, if each human started fixing from him, it will be the end of a toxic
pollution environment. This essay explains the five steps that each product go
thought from its beginning until it reaches the consumers hands, and how it affects
UAE society. As describe in the
(Story
of Stuff 2007).
Firstly, Extraction which mean to take out the planet’s resources such as plants,
wood, coal, water , fossil fuel , animals and soil out of the earth starting
their trips over the materials economy .
But the issue here is multilateral too much stuff used by people,
processes which extract all stuff lead to extra harm while stuff not shared equitably.
Environment, destroyed and wasted
the material also the ecosystems been damaged by this processes used to extract
all that stuff as mountain top removal mining, bottom trawling fishing, clear
cutting forests been trashed. Furthermore Health
problems as asthma, respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, autoimmune
diseases, liver failure, cancer and other ailments are linked to extractive
industries because of pollution, toxics and water degradation.
The Second step, Production is energy used to make stuff which may include harmful
chemicals to the natural production systems used wide amount of natural
materials, energy, water and chemical compounds to creat pollution, work and
community health troubles and products, many of which include toxics known to
be harmful to human health as the Environment which included water depletion,
climate change, toxics pollution and waste .As long toxics been used by human production
systems: air, water, stuff and food are taxied out of defilement and consumer
products. Which cause many diseases from canter to disruption of our
neurological and hormonal systems, are so current that they are routinely found
in each body examined, even modern born babies.
Thirdly, Distribution concerned transported and
sold each stuff fast and inexpensive. The aim was saved prices lower; people
purchased and stored the materials flow moved .A opener Strategy businesses
used to hold prices low is to consider costs. That means that the value tags on
customer products don’t captivate the real is values and classified all this
stuff. More environmental impacts created by distributed all this stuff. Energy
is a used to Carrey every stuff round the universe as well as for bright and
temperature controlled by all the stores and malls. The disappointment of
certain large saleable shops to deliver passable wellbeing treatment for labors
is fortunate recognized. Low salaried stock employees are required health care
charges, stress increased and divert already short get from extra simple
requirements and may set by workers’ long-term health. (Story of Stuff 2007)
Fourth stage,
consumption: stream consumption
patterns are unmaintainable and unfair and should not stay the same way. But
the attitude and the behavior of costumers changed it repeatedly. Yes, when shopped
the minimum damaged product available difficulty should paid; mean our selections
at the shops pre-determined and narrow by political and institutional forces
beyond the store. ( Story of Stuff 2007)
To change these, society need to think
out of the box and reclaim their self's as involved citizens in a community.
Furthermore, over consumption our mental and physical health impacts more
stressed, unhappy and long-work hours to paid for it all.
Lastly, Disposal materials economy ultimately
end up as waste to be disposed someplace in the world through virtually all the
resources flow, dumped or burned or recovered for recycle usually. As the quantity
and harmfulness of waste grow, recycle can’t resolve the whole problem. Waste
needs to be designed out of the system from the begin through cleaner
production, composited, better product design, recycle and used less overall stuff. The air,
land and water been dumped and burned waste pollutes; releases potent
greenhouse gases; wastes resources that could have been conserved and diverts
attention and funding away from real solutions. Materials and energy conserves recycled,
but is frequently itself an unclean process and aren’t always conceivable with
today’s combination of toxic and weakly designed products.
In the past couple years; the UAE consumption rate has increased
dramatically due to inflation and many other factors. According to the UAE
national bureau of statistics, the consumer price index has increased from
107.75 index points in 2008 to 117.41 in 2013. The numbers clearly indicates
that the prices paid for goods and services has grown in the past couple years.
(Gerson. 2008) The
increase happened because of many factors like an increase in demand for goods
or services or decrease in the value of currency. (Kennon)
In the world there is pollution so
many kinds and there is who try to diminish this pollution, all layers in the
society are affected by this toxic all over. The steps that each product goes
through are receiving or producing chemicals and toxics which include women who
are mother of babies. The solution to this problem comes from each member
before the government.
