In most cases when we think of pollution very rarely do we spare a moment or two to think of ecological footprints of the shoes on our feet, the cap on our heads nor the shirts on our backs (Claudio). Instead, all we think of is the raw sewage piped into our watercourses; we envision the emissions from the textile and coal industries, our bare-stripped forested landscapes, and the municipal wastes piling on our streets and landfills (Sweeney). The bitter and unfortunate truth, however, is that the overall impact of the apparel industry on our plant is quite grim ( ...

The emergence of rubbish (assuming "rubbish" is disposable objects ridded ...

Achebe in his novel Things Fall Apart reminds the readers of pictures of pre-colonial Africa. He claims that before the arrival of the colonists there they had their own rituals, their own religion, orders, and laws. Despite the seeming brutality of some customs, people were not so barbaric. Achebe is not trying to pander to the clichéd consciousness of Europeans, who were, and still are, convinced that Africa, lived as a primitive savage community, virtually without any organization. Achebe has written an honest, truthful humane novel about real people, their life. Of utmost interest to us are the ...
