Answer 1

Answer:

Heather Rogers noted that if people saw what happened to their waste, perceived the stench that it gave off, and the amount of destruction that was caused in processing it, then they would start asking some difficult questions.

Explanation:

In the book, "Hidden Life of Garbage: Hidden in Plain View", Heather Rogers noted that most of the waste produced in urban cities and environments were being transported to hidden locations in rural places, out of the sight of the producers of these wastes. The reason for this is that when people see certain awful ways that these wastes are discharged, they will ask difficult questions.

For example, the top of the landfill managed by Waste Management Incorporated in the outskirts of Pennsylvania houses a huge amount of refuse that can be seen and that testifies to the excessive waste produced by people.
