Why recycle?
Years ago, before the invention of plastics and other non biodegradable materials, disposing of waste was less of a concern. Now that people produce so much non biodegradable waste, it is more difficult to find places to store them.
Much waste is dumped in landfill sites. However, these sites take up large areas of land and the waste may remain there for many years-perhaps even centuries, and pollute the environment. Recycling is an alternative way of dealing with it, reducing the amount of waste in the environment and protecting the planet from pollution.
It is also important in the effort to reduce the amount of new materials used for manufacturing things. Supply of natural resources is not unlimited and they may run out. Furthermore, it can also be more cost effective to reuse old materials instead of using new ones. Thus, recycling can help save money too!
