Trash day, the end of the line or just the beginning?

My husband had a business meeting the other day and asked me to go along for the snowy ride. While I waited for his meeting to begin, I looked for something to draw and discovered the Christmas colors of the trash bin and barrels.
When we drove home later, I saw a one mile long train. Looking closer at it, I discovered it was loaded with sealed trash compartments and I wondered where they were taking them and what was going to happen after they got there. I wondered, 'What hole in the land are they going to be dumped into; what creature living on or in the earth would they be plopped on top of, killing the animal and the soil beneath? What was going to leach into the groundwater?' I really felt sad thinking about that.
We all need to Recycle, and conserve. We all need to Care for the Earth God gave us so that generations to come won't have to suffer from our wasteful actions.
