What is Recycling?

Recycling

Recycling can help you, your community, and the environment by saving money, energy, and natural resources.  Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that  you would have thrown away as trash and turning them into new products.  When you recycle you help reduce the amount of wast that ends up in landfills and incinerators.

Recycling Benefits

Recycling materials such as paper, metals, glass or plastics helps conserve natural resources including timber, water and minerals. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), recycling also prevents pollution by reducing the need to collect new raw materials.  This in turn actually supports American manufacturing because it helps create jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries right here in the United States. Protecting the environment and nature is critical to your and your family’s health. Clean air to breathe and clean water to drink are fundamental to your well-being. Conserving resources helps protect nature and ensures that our earth stays green. A 2013 study found that experiencing natures can actually make us happier and healthier people.
