RECYCLING

"Quite simply, use what you have until it can no longer function."


Semrau has a unique style of writing because he keeps certain information away from his readers and changes his discussions quickly.  Even though it is a different way of writing, this does help the intent of the essay. The intent of Semrau's essay was to show the relationship between our lifestyles and decisions to basic recycling.  He starts out his essay discussing the recycling process and how it can benefit people and the earth. He switches to how people can actually recycle their interests and put what talents and abilities they have to good use.  Semarau uses himself as an example.  He retired from one job and then moved on to use his other interests and turn those into jobs and potential careers even at an older age.  He also explains how it does not matter the stage of life a person is in as long as they are willing to use their gifts and passions. This style of writing makes the reader pay closer attention and analyze the author's point.  It also makes the reader take into consideration the impact that this could have on their own lives. The essay switches the subject of what is actually being recycled and it is a good way to keep the reader interested and thinking.
