|           Why is the world producing so much garbage? Garbage is an  |      |
|           unavoidable result of consumption. And to __1__ the high standard of  |      |
|           living that has been reached in many industrialized countries, we  |      |
|           must continue to consume, as the consumption keeps the wheel of  |      |
|           5  |                   industry turning. We use the rapidly disappearing natural resources of  |      
|           the earth to feed the machines of industry, which __2__ produce  |      |
|           endless quantities of consumer goods. What we haven’t been able to  |      |
|           do, however, is to find a successful way to __3__ all the by-products  |      |
|           of industry and the products themselves when they are used up, worn  |      |
|           10  |                   out, or outdated.  |      
|           One of the biggest causes of the garbage problem is the world’s  |      |
|           exploding population. More and more people mean more and more  |      |
|           waste. Before the industrial revolution, when the world population  |      |
|           was very small, the problem of garbage did not exist. Whatever waste  |      |
|           15  |                   was produced then could be absorbed by the earth without __4__  |      
|           nature’s balance, but nature can no longer cope with the amount of  |      |
|           garbage that is currently being produced.  |
