1. Benefits of Recycling
Recycling is a process, a series of
activities that includes the collection and
sorting of waste materials, the processing
of these materials to produce brand new
products, and the purchase and use of
these new products by consumers.
Recycling is more optimized and efficient
if we practice the Triple R's of waste
management: reduce, reuse, recycle.
2. Recycling Helps Protect The Environment
Recycling helps to protect the environment and reduces the amount of
waste that gets deposited in our landfills or burned in incinerator plants.
Engineered landfills in most cities are designed to contain toxic
chemicals leaking from decaying solid waste from reaching our water
systems. Burning solid waste for electricity may be efficient, but we pay
the price in terms of increased carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
gas emissions.
3. Recycling Helps Conserve Limited
Resource
Recycling helps to conserve limited Resources like oil and precious
metals (gold, silver, bauxite, copper, etc.) are all finite resources that will
be exhausted, sooner or later. Cell phone and computer manufacturers,
like Dell and Apple, recognize the need for a steady supply of raw
materials - most are active in buy-back programs to recycle materials
from used products.
4. Recycling Promotes Energy Efficiency
Recycling is far more efficient, in terms of energy consumption, rather
than producing something fresh from raw material. Done on a
nationwide scale, this could lead to significant reduction in our energy
costs. The energy required to extract , process, and transport metal
from a mine to a refinery is obviously much greater than what's required
to recycle metal from used products.
5. Recycling Helps Build A Strong Economy
Every cost-reduction, energy efficiency, materials conservation, and job
generation benefit of recycling adds up to help build a strong economy
for our country. Recycling, doing on country wide, has huge positive
impact on economy. Recycling give a boost in the economy by giving
thousand of jobs and save cost of manufacturing new goods.
6. Recycling Creates Jobs
Recycling not only save energy and cost for manufacturing new goods,
the recycling industry create jobs and hellps our economy. Recycling
generates more jobs than landfilling or incinerating waste. That's a
benefit we can't lose sight of, in this time of recession and high
unemployment rate.
