Write your answers in the space provided: Some waste is not dangerous. Often somebody will recycle it and do something useful with it. You can break up old cars to get the metal, or make new glass from old bottles. But some waste is toxic – it is very poisonous. In the USA, for example, factories dump – throw away- 265 million tons of toxic waste every year. How do you dump toxic waste safely? Well, you can put it in metal containers and leave it somewhere safe; but this can be a very bad idea. You can bury toxic waste. You put it in a deep hole and cover it with soil. That is what happened at Love Canal in the USA. In the 1930s a chemical producer buried many tons of toxic waste in metal containers. In 1950s, a builder bought the land and built a little town there. Nobody remembered the containers of toxic waste under the ground. Then, in the 1970s, the waste started to come through the metal of the containers and pollute the ground. Trees and grass blackened and died. There was a bad smell everywhere. People had to leave their homes. The people who cleaned up Love Canal found eighty-two different toxic chemicals in the soil. You can burn toxic waste, but it is more expensive than burying it and the burning can produce dangerous gases. So some people burn their toxic waste at sea in special ships The chemicals get into the air and the wind carries them a long way. You can send you toxic waste to a poorer country and pay somebody to burn or bury it there. The USA sends toxic waste to Panama. Germany and Holland send toxic waste to the Czech Republic. Is this a good idea? Toxic waste can be useful if you know how to recycle it. Some producers bury their toxic waste in the soil. There, special bacteria in the soil eat the waste and change it into clean, safe carbon dioxide and water. In Britain, some people are growing special waste-eating bacteria. These bacteria eat toxic chemicals. There is a lot of toxic waste in the world: Are these bacteria hungry enough? 1.
