The total population of Springhill, Louisiana is 5,214.
The sum that I gathered and later calculated by just how many people in the community would collect and bring to the recycling center is:
Plastic: 1 bag: 5,214 x 1 = 5,214
Glass: 1 bag: 5,214 x 1 = 5,214
Cans: 2 bags: 5,214 x 2 = 10,428
Spray cans: 1 bags: 5,214 x 1 = 5,214
Boxes: 1 bag: 5,214 x 1 = 5,214
Total trash for the year: 5,214 x 52 = 281,556
Determining the quantity of trash that I have observed when driving around, I think the majority of the community is not concerned with their surroundings or of the ecological community.
