TIPH Assignment

I chose this picture because it helps keep Athens clean and encourages recycling.  These are recycling bins inside of the Classic Center in downtown Athens. They allow for easy recycling and encourage recycling in one of Athens most popular venues. Athens is known as one of the countries most environmentally friendly cities and things like this help dramatically.  Athens make it so easy to recycle unlike many other places in Georgia.  In most places you have to go out of your way to recycle but with areas like this, it is easier to recycle than just throw something in the landfill.  I really appreciate living in an area that encourages recycling as much as Athens goes.  I chose this because I recycle at my house but most do not, but these sort of things and areas make every day recycling easy for everyone.  Nothing encourages recycling more than making it easier than not recycling. Others should consider this important because our environment is very important and not renewable.  We only have one earth, and so our health is tied to how well we treat the earth.
