Environmental Awareness And Recycling In Street Economy
Öz
The environment can be defined as a habitat where people, animals and plants coexist and influence each other. In this World, which we share in common with animals and plants, a human being is the only being who is aware of the environment in which one lives, yet the human being is also the only one, who pollutes the world in which one lives, and uses the world’s resources as if they were eternal. A person’s being aware of oneself and the universe, in which one lives, is the foundation of the concepts of environmental awareness and responsibility. Environmental awareness, together with environmental knowledge, covers all the positive or negative attitudes and thoughts of the people towards environmental behaviors such as fears, resentments, unrest, value judgments and readiness to solve environmental problems.
Environmental awareness and recycling are an integral part of street economy. As the emergence of street economy has evolved and found a chance to live in the failures and externalities of the market economy, environmental pollution is the pollution of the habitat by the market economy, or in other words, by wild capitalism for the sake of the individual interests or maximal profits.
Street economy is evolving in the failures, externalities and environmental destruction of capitalism carried out on the basis of capital accumulation of free market economy. Millions of people, who are willing to work only with scarcity and low incomes and consent to live from hand to mouth, continue their struggle of cleaning the streets, garbage bins and even the beaches either voluntarily or as in the case of recycling workers, despite all the risks such as disease, social insecurity, violence, being subject to underground laws, the struggle against mafia, and also struggle against police for the reason that the activities carried out in the streets are legally prohibited, cleaning the waste left in the streets, which is worth billions of dollars, in the metropoles of the world. In fact, it is estimated that around 500,000 people in our country and around 200 million people in the world, who are named as recycling workers, recyclists, waste collectors, paper collectors in the streets, provide their livelihood through the wastes. Although this group does not act directly with a conscious approach, in other words with an environmental awareness, they indirectly involuntarily produce solutions to environmental pollution and environmental problems. If researchers, policymakers, academicians correctly perceive the event and analyze it correctly, they can win this group, who spontaneously and voluntarily transforms waste into added value, as environmental volunteers and integrate them into urban life as important actors in the solution of environmental problems.
