My
example of public health is of a recycling bin in a classroom of
the pharmacy building on campus. This recycling bin is an example of public
health because it promotes people recycling plastic bottles rather than
throwing them away in a regular trashcan. Recycling is a tool to help our
environment, and thus an example of public health.
I
chose this example of a recycling bin, because I think they are a great and
inexpensive way to help our school campus move forward with cleaning up our
environment and furthermore, our planet. It is important for others to consider
this an example of public health because it helps our surrounding living
situation by conserving energy and saving landfill space. Recycling plastic bottles reduces the amount of energy it takes to create the plastic
itself. You don’t even need to go out of your way in order to do good for our
environment- just simply throw your bottle in the green bin on campus rather
than the black one.
