The Simpsons ' Trash of the Titans '

1. Summary of story

Companies created a new holiday ' Love Day ' to sell more of their products. It caused more

garbage to be produced. Simpsons' family also prodused a lot of garbage. When Homer took

out the garbage, he fought the garbege men. therefore they didn't pick up the garbage.

After that, some day, the garbage men picked up the garbage because Homer's wife wrote a

letter of apology to the sanitation commissioner. Homer felt violated, he went to the city hall,

he decided to register to run for the sanitation commissioner. Finally, he won the race, he

became a the sanitation commissioner. However, he didn't work well. He spent his entire year's

budget in a month. So, he allowed other cities throw garbage away in his town. He thinked

he solved the problem, but it caused a big disaster. Whole town was filled with the garbage.

As a result, he was fired the job, whole town had to be moved to other place.



2. My thoughts on the story.

This story is very serious. It can be happened to us. I think America produced a lot of

garbage. American look like they don't think seriously about this problem. Korea,

my country, also has this problem. However, we did our best for solve this problem.

Many years ago, we already practiced a separate garbage collection and used recyclable

materials. Althogh USA also practiced it, it didn't well. Therefore I insist that American must

change a mind about the garbage problem.



3. What does the episode say about Holiday in America ?

This episode make me feel seriously about Holiday culture. I also produced a lot of

garbage at the holiday such as a valentine day. Now, after watched the cartoon, I'll

try to reduce producing garbage.
