How to use rubbish in a sentence?

  1. Demi Mutch:

    It's somewhere where you can go and forget about all this virus stuff, that's all that's playing on our news at the moment, so to be able to go and watch some funny creative clips and photos of people taking out their rubbish is the best thing in my day to have a quick scroll.

  2. William A. Orton:

    If you keep your mind sufficiently open, people will throw a lot of rubbish into it.

  3. Matt Rimmer:

    When it comes to preventing fatbergs, everyone has a role to play, yes a lot of the fat comes from food outlets but the wipes and sanitary items are far more likely to be from domestic properties. The sewers are not an abyss for household rubbish and our message to everyone is clear – please ‘Bin it – don’t block it’.

  4. Angelique Hilaire:

    I can't afford to rent anywhere else, every time it rains I pray to God for it to stop. But what can I do ? Even a short downpour can leave the capital flooded as piles of rubbish on the streets and debris filled canals block drains, which exacerbates flooding. Natural disasters linked to climate change will only get more frequent and extreme in the future, experts say. Decades of deforestation have left Haiti even more exposed to natural disasters, with less than three percent of its original forest cover still intact, according to the UNDP. This causes soil erosion and reduces the ability of soil to retain water, making Haiti more vulnerable to flooding and landslides. During heavy rainfall, there are few trees to stop water washing down the bare mountains. While 5.5 million tree seedlings have been planted in Haiti by the UNDP since 2010, not enough has been done to stop people cutting down trees in the first place. Selling charcoal, which comes from burning wood, is used for cooking and is a key source of income for many Haitians living in the countryside. .

  5. Kuntoro Mangkusubroto:

    Finally, the mounting tsunami rubbish was cleared. For such a huge job like that, the world didn't leave us alone to face it.
