Ask someone what he has done to help the environment, and he will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling around the home is, of course, very important. However,     1    (force) to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better     2     we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.

The total amount of packaging increased     3     12 percent between 1999 and 2005. A large number of companies believe that they can attract customers’ attention and stimulate their purchasing desire by over-packaging their goods, thus     4    (gain) more profits.

Too much packaging is doing damage to the environment. If such packaging     5    (burn), it will give off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps,     6     the process itself uses energy. The solution is to stop producing such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. Fortunately, a few of them are coming round to the idea     7     this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.

Yet this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that     8     without packaging is of poor quality. This is especially true of food, but it applies to a wide range of consumer products,     9     often have far more packaging than necessary.

There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. However, despite the ongoing campaigns     10    (promote) consumers’ green awareness, we still have a long way to go.
