Do you wonder how much trash is produced each day across the globe?
The United Nations states that an average person produces more than 2.5 pounds of waste per day. That's over 25 billion pounds of garbage each year!
Most of this rubbish ends up in landfills or incinerators. But, what happens when those dumpsters fill up? It goes to the United States, where most of it is exported. The rest is dumped abroad, where it pollutes other ecosystems. Now, we know the exact location of all this garbage. Mike Sexton is his name. He is the founder of Waste Watchers. He watches over trucks that transport trash across North America. Then he reports back to us about what happens next.
Sexton states that he finds his work very fulfilling. CNN spoke with Sexton that they have a lot fun. "We see big rigs coming through town and we'll follow them. "Sexton began to follow truck drivers around 20 years ago.
"It's all I felt," he stated.
He loved the story of the driver who pulled into an abandoned gas station near Los Angeles. Sexton recalls, "The guy was searching for somewhere to put his loads." "He drove down the road to see this building. He stopped and pulled up, then he went inside. "There were two huge roll-off containers there filled with stuff. The man removed everything from the truck and started to load it again. "Then, he took everything out and started filling up the truck again. There were lots of old tires, rags furniture, mattresses, mattresses, cans, cans, and other items. "It was just total chaos. But it had been cleared out before he arrived. There wasn’t trash everywhere."
So why did this happen? It's because this area used to be a recycle center. People would drive from all over the country to recycle their trash. Sexton explained, "They would bring their household goods and take them here," and they would then empty the containers.
Now, because of the way the law works, once a container reaches its destination, it cannot be opened.So no matter how often someone takes something out of it, the thing will never be emptied.Every time the truck comes by, it has to start over again. It could happen hundreds of thousands of times a week. The truck eventually stops running because it has become so jammed with junk. The truck eventually stops running and the owner decides that it is time to get rid of the vehicle.
Trash is not the only problem our planet faces.
Most of these particles are made up of tiny pieces of plastic.Some of these plastics end up in landfills or incinerators. Some end up in rivers and oceans, while others end up in fish's stomachs.
Experts warn of a possible global food crisis if nothing is done. Experts warn that if we continue to go the same way, we won't make it. However, scientists and most people aren't worried.
What dark secrets are there in Hollywood?
Hollywood is full of secret societies. There are secret societies that are more cult-like than others. They have members who follow specific rules and rituals. While some are clubs for those with similar interests, others are not.
However, there are many other criminal organizations that hold much of the industry's power. There are companies like the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), who sets film ratings and the RIAA, which sets music licensing fees.
Numerous unions/guilds also represent actors and directors as well as writers, producers, and so forth. These large corporations control the majority of major film studios and television networks.
The fact is that regardless of how secretive any group may be, someone somewhere knows exactly who they are. But we don't have to fear them.
Instead, we should embrace them. Because they help us make better choices.
They tell us what movies will likely succeed, what songs will be popular, and what books will best sell.
They help us make decisions about what we will buy, watch, listen to, or read.
We can trust them so we can ignore their advice when it doesn't suit our taste.
We choose to ignore them and they become even more powerful. They are the supreme arbiters of taste.
And if you don't like what they say, you're free to ignore them.
Now let's take a look at some lesser-known yet very real Hollywood secret society.
And see why they're so important.
Why do actors get blacklisted in the first place?
Actors are more likely to be rejected than writers. As an actor, it's likely that you will be rejected a lot. But it doesn't matter because eventually, you'll find someone who loves you.
Actors can often make a living from acting because they are very talented. Actors aren't always interested in making a living. Actors love acting, and love telling stories. You'll be an actor if you love acting.
Even worse, you might be told you are too young or too old to play the part. Or you might audition for a movie and lose out to another person. It happens all the times.
But once you've been cast, you may also face criticism. Some people will say that you look awful or shouldn't wear makeup. If you're lucky, you won't even hear negative comments.
Sometimes you'll be criticized because you're playing a character that isn't realistic or authentic. Maybe you play a gay man, and everyone thinks you're straight. You could also play a woman with a tendency to cry a lot, even though she's supposed to be tough.
Or maybe you're asked to change your voice. Sometimes, they will ask you to sound more like a woman or a man. They will usually ask you to sound better.
It is best to ignore these criticisms. Actors sometimes feel like failures when they hear they were wrong. The truth is they haven’t done anything wrong.
They didn't have the talent to make them famous. They may not fit the bill sometimes, no mater how hard they try.
There are many reasons an actor might be blacklisted. Some people don't like actors. Some people think actors are lazy. Others still believe that actors cheat.
No matter what the reason, you won't be blacklisted if your persistence persists. There are many opportunities for you to find your role.
As long as you keep trying, you'll eventually succeed.
What is the most secretive place in the world, and why?
This question might surprise you. It could even make you uncomfortable, because it challenges how reality is perceived and lived. There is a reason this place exists and it's not as you might expect.
It was also called the City of God in ancient Greek. In the Bible, it was known as the City of Destruction.
It is also called Kashi in India (Kashmir). It's known in Russia as Novgorod.
It is known as The Town That Disappeared in America.
One small community in western New York State with 1,200 residents vanished without a trace. With the exception of a road marker pointing to its former site, there were no remains: cars, bodies, houses.
This little town disappeared, leaving no clues about where it went or when. Some say it was swallowed up by the Earth. Others claim that a meteorite hit destroyed it. Still, others say aliens took it away.
Despite what may have happened, the people who lived in this once-thriving area are confident that their town will not be lost forever. They just moved to another city.
There's even a website that tracks the disappearances and recoveries of Zugspitz.
So, where exactly did this town go? It's actually in Switzerland!
You can find Zugspitze at the border of Austria and Germany. Just beyond the summit of the mountain is a huge lake called Lake Zugspitze.
It has always fascinated and astonished me to see how many towns have vanished but still exist. Why do some disappear while others survive? I decided to investigate.
I was curious about the disappearing towns. What is the secret to a town's disappearance? How can one place vanish from existence?
It turns out that there are several theories about the phenomenon of vanishing towns. One theory states that a town vanishes when all its buildings are destroyed. Another theory states that the town simply moves to another location. Another theory suggests that the town has never existed.
No matter what theories you may have, there is no doubt that many towns across the globe were swallowed by the ground. This video looks into the history of those places and investigates their current status.

How To
American history is full of secret societies and clubs
Many reasons make American History's secret societies and clubs fascinating. The mystery surrounding them is one reason. Another reason is because of their effect on our society.
Secret societies and clubs have been used throughout America’s history to spread ideas that would otherwise be taboo. Anti-Semitism, racism, and other ideas are just a few of the many examples. These groups also spread ideologies like communism and socialists.
The Ku Klux Klan was the most famous American group. This group was created in 1865 after the Civil War. Its purpose is to protect white people from African Americans.
Other organizations created during this period included the Knights Templar, Freemasons, and Odd Fellows. These organizations shared the same beliefs and goals.
Another interesting thing about secret societies is the fact that membership was often restricted to males. These secret societies also included women. These women included Emma Goldman. Margaret Sanger and Susan B Anthony.
There were other secret societies that did not share these ideals, in addition to those mentioned. The Order of Skull & Bones for instance was founded in 1832. Their goal was the creation of an elite class in the United States.
