QUÉ SIGNIFICA LITTER EN INGLÉS

Camada

Litter

La basura consiste en productos de desecho que han sido eliminados de manera inapropiada, sin consentimiento, en un lugar inapropiado. La basura también se puede usar como un verbo. La basura significa lanzar objetos sobre el suelo y dejarlos indefinidamente o para que otros los desechen en lugar de deshacerse de ellos adecuadamente. Los artículos peligrosos más grandes como neumáticos, electrodomésticos, aparatos electrónicos y grandes contenedores industriales suelen ser vertidos en lugares aislados, como Bosques Nacionales y otras tierras públicas. Es un impacto humano en el medio ambiente y es un grave problema ambiental en muchos países. La basura puede existir en el medio ambiente durante largos períodos de tiempo antes de degradarse y ser transportada a grandes distancias en los océanos del mundo. La basura puede afectar la calidad de vida. Las colillas de cigarrillos son el elemento más repleto del mundo, con 4,5 billones de descartes anualmente. Las estimaciones sobre el tiempo requerido para que las colillas de los cigarrillos se descompongan varían. Tienen entre cinco y 400 años para una degradación completa.

Litter consists of waste products that have been disposed improperly, without consent, at an inappropriate location. Litter can also be used as a verb. To litter means to throw objects onto the ground and leave them indefinitely or for others to dispose of as opposed to disposing of them properly. Larger hazardous items such as tires, appliances, electronics and large industrial containers are often dumped in isolated locations, such as National Forests and other public land. It is a human impact on the environment and is a serious environmental issue in many countries. Litter can exist in the environment for long periods of time before degrading and be transported large distances into the world's oceans. Litter can affect quality of life. Cigarette butts are the most littered item in the world, with 4.5 trillion discarded annually. Estimates on the required time for cigarette butts to break down vary. They range from five years to 400 years for complete degradation.
