Explanation:

The reasons for why garbage should not be thrown in open are as follows :-

1. It can cause physical harm or injury to people  .Litter can contain objects that can harm or cause physical injury to people namely needles, blades or broken glass.

2. It can facilitate the spread of disease .Littering can encourage the spread of pest species and diseases. The trash can provide breeding ground for diseases and pass it between animals that eat it. If the trash collects water it may also harbor mosquitoes that are known to spread the deadly malaria disease in tropic regions. Toxic chemicals and disease causing microorganisms in the trash may also contaminate water systems and spread water-borne diseases which can negatively affect the health of both animals and humans if unclean or untreated water is consumed.

3.It pollutes the environment in many ways .Litter adversely affects the environment. Be it littering along the road, on the streets or by the litter bins, toxic materials or chemicals in the litter can be blown or washed into rivers, forest lands, oceans, lakes and creeks and eventually pollutes the waterways, land, forest areas, soils or aquatic environments.

4. It degrades the sceneric quality of the place where it is thrown.

5.5. It can adversely affect or  kill wildlife . Plastic litter has often been mistaken for food by both land and marine wildlife such as the herbivores, sea birds, turtles, and fish. When consumed by the animals, they reduce the stomach capacity since they can’t be digested. In the long-term it affects the animals’ eating habit, eventually killing the animal.
