Recycling is the collecting of waste materials, reprocessing them into new materials or products. These recycled materials are later sold again. Aluminum beverages cans are one of the most obvious items on the grocery store shelves that are continually recycled. Why should we recycle?
There are five main reasons. It saves natural resources. By making products from recycled materials instead of from virgin materials we conserve land and reduce the need to mine minerals and drill for oil. Recycling saved energy. It normally takes less energy to produce recycled products; recycled aluminum needs 95 percent less energy than new aluminum made from bauxite one. Recycling reduces pollution. Making products from recycled materials generally creates less air and eater pollution than making them from virgin materials. Recycling conserved landfill space. Recycled products go back into materials stream rather than into landfills. Recycling creates jobs and saves money. It creates far more jobs than landfills or incinerators do. Well managed, full-utilized recycling programs can be the more expensive waste management method. Why dump money into a big hole in the ground when we could be spending it on more productive things?
