What kind of things can be recycled and how do you do it?

# data[].attributes.body
Nowadays, it can be recycled almost everything. I have been recycling since I was a teenager and I have tried to raise awareness around me: family, friends, pupils...
The way I recycle consists of separating the trash into different bins and put the garbage into its corresponding containers: green for glass, yellow for packaging, blue for paper and grey for organic waste. I also try to carry my own reusable plastic bag when I go to the supermarket.
Recently, I have learned a new improved version of "The 3 R's rules for recycling" (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle), which consists in the addition of another "R", that corresponds with the initial letter of the word "Refuse", that suggests we should reject, as much as possible, the use of unnecessary products or those whose useful life is short, avoiding consumerism.

What are the biggest environmental threats we are facing these days?

# data[].attributes.body
One of the biggest problems in the world today is global warming due to factories, power plants, and cars among other burning fossil fuels, which release carbon dioxide and other gases into the atmosphere.

It´s clear that our planet is changing bit by bit and everybody should contribute to improve it. Beside this, there are a great number of things that we can do every day to assist it, such as by recycling our waste. We can also recycle glass bottles, paper, plastic containers and carton. In addition, we can make recyclabled materials by organic food, throw everything in the bin, have reusable shopping bags and plant more trees. We can all be less eco-guilty, using public transport, by buying hybrid and electric cars, installing solar panels or wind turbines to generate electricity, as well as avoiding leaving the tap running, and much more.

I personally think that being environmentally friendly simple means having a lifestyle that is better for our planet. Some effects of global warming are: rising sea levels, changing weather patterns, severe droughts and animals, unable to adapt to these changes, will have to face extinction. For these reasons, we all need to do good actions to help our planet improve.

Consequently, if we want to be eco-friendly, we need to improve our behavior by not throwing trash into the rivers, seas or in the forest, improve public transport to make it more accessible to use it every day, because it is another extremely important green issue.
Last but not least, we should reduce our dependency on petrol and diesel vehicles, to avoid using up natural resources namely coal and oil.

To sum up, the facts suggest that if we don´t succeed in repairing the ecological balance, tomorrow it will be too late.

I have been reciclying almost all my life, even now, with this health emergency.
I recycle in the same way as all of you, I mean: I clean the waste and I throw it in the correct container.
Also, I try to compost the organic waste for my plants.
I reuse papers and create new objects with the materials.
Since some years I avoid consuming those things that can't be recycled , as straws of purchased tickets.
To finish with, I would like to say that my best trick to save the environment is to avoid consumerism, trying to be a minimalist and a Zero Waste person. And I try to teach this kind of things to my students.

In my daily life, I´m used to recycling as much as I can, for example:
* I usually take the household waste away in the proper container. It´s easy since each container has a color.

In order to do that, I look at the logo for recycling on the products so I really know where or in which container I must take them away.
* I always carry my bags when I go shopping and I reuse these bags for a long time, until they are not useful.
* I have a composter in my garden, so I compost my organic waste.

* As I´m a teacher and I use too much paper, I reuse it, for instance I cut the sheets of paper in small pieces so that I can use them to write notes…

I can say that, although I am not really an ecologist, I try to take care of the environment because it is very important for our lives and for our descendants. In my humble opinion, I´m committed to looking after the planet Earth.

I try to be conscious about and consistent with the environment, that is why I try to recycle everything I can, such as cardboard, paper, glass, cans, ... also household appliances that have no solution taking them to the ecopark. On top of that, I try to encourage other people to respect their environment. There are few actions we may take to improve our environment, but we hope that little by little, everyone is aware of this need and we act together...

Nowadays, recycling is very important because we have to reduce the amount of things we consume to stop the greenhouse effect.

In my case, I usually recycle plastic, paper and glass and, as a result, I feel really fantastic about myself. But how do I do it? I have different containers (green for glass, yellow for plastic, blue for papel and black for oganic waste). Moreover I always throw each waste to where it belongs.

From my point of view, separating food is very important in order to be an ecofriendly person.

# data[].attributes.body
In my house, we recycle mainly cardboard, plastic, glass and organic. We normally use plastic bags for plastic and the organic, cardboard bags for cardboard and we carry the glass in plastic bags that we reuse later for keeping the glass, starting the process again. Also, I always carry with me a special bag, so I do not have to ask for a plastic one in the supermarket or any other place. I think that if we try to do this, shops will not ask for plastic bags and we would reduce the use of plastics. For example, since we watched a video about the cardboard that toothpaste use, I only buy toothpaste without the cardboard.

# data[].attributes.body
Currently, the recycled matter is quite well organized, which means that there are plenty of containers and places to separate appropriately our waste. Depending on what you want to throw, you should do it into one container or another. The main containers are: the blue (mainly for paper and carton), the yellow (for plastic, bottoms, cans…), the green (for bottles and glass), the grey (mainly for organic waste) and the clean point (for the rest of the stuff).
You can recycle by having different small containers at home where you can separate the waste in the moment you are throwing it. In my case, I tend to separate the plastic and glass from the organic, and also when I´m going to have a shower, I put a bin to save the cold water until it is warm enough, so I can use it later in my plants, for cleaning…

It is very important to try to recycle as muchs as we can. But not only recycling is a must but also reducing the amount of things we consume and reusing everything. We are meant to follow the famous 3R: reduce, reuse and recycle.
At home, I have different bins  (yellow for plastic, blue for paper, green for glass and black for organic  waste). In my opinion it is important to try to buy ecofriendly products and avoid plastic packages or containers. Also we should reuse bags.
Finally, I want to say that caring about the environment is a shared labour, so we have to participe on it.

Nowadays, many things can be recycled as for example glass, cardboard, paper, plastic, clothes... But the real question is: Do we recycle it properly?

At home, we recycle everything! We have a special bag for paper, a small bin for batteries, a bin for plastic and another for glass.  And I almost forget I have a special bottle to recycle used oil. Then I go to the specific dustbins to put it in order to be recycled. We also have a bag to put old clothes and shoes to give to people who can need it and one for pills to take to the pharmacy.

Answering my question, do you know that the cardboard boxes for pizza can't be recycled as they have oil on the surface? Do you know that if you have a tuna can, the oil must be removed from it before throwing it? These things are the things we don't know because no one tells them.

But don't forget we can also REDUCE and REUSE things in order to become environmentally friendly.

# data[].attributes.body
Fortunately, I've got all kinds of recycling bins in front of
my house, so I'm used to recycling as much as I can.
(Glass, cardboard, paper, waste oil, among others).
When it comes to recycling electronic devices or white-goods, I usually call the Local  Collection Service which comes home and carries off everything.
Lately, I'm trying to buy less overpacked products so as to be more eco-friendly.

# data[].attributes.body
I try to recycle using four containers: blue, yellow, green and black:
- The blue one is used for cardboard and different kind of papers.
-The yellow container is to recycle plastics, bricks and cans.
- We throw away glasses in the green one.
- We always use the black container for the organic  garbage.

People should also recycle batteries and old gadgets.

The shoes and clothes that we don´t use could be deposited in order to be donated.

People are more aware of the importance of caring for the environment. Have you ever heard about DIY? "Do it yourself" is a useful way to reuse and reduce things that can be still reused.

Finally, we have to remember  the three Rs to save the planet: Recycle, Reduce and Reuse.

# data[].attributes.body
I usually recycle cardboard, plastic, glass bottles and papers. Obviously, I throw away the cardboard and paper in the blue container, the plastic in the yellow one, and the glass in the green. I also take the exhausted batteries and the oil to clean points.

Now, more than ever is time to be conscious about our Planet. Historicaly, people thought that Mother Earth was just like a big rubbish bin, obviously, we were wrong...Apart from reusing and reducing consumerism, another great option is just recycling. We have at home different rubbish bins, mainly for glass, paper, plastics and organic or biodegradable waste (part of this one is used for compost at my school). Personally speaking, I feel extremely sad, even hungry , when Local Council Policies are not efficient enough on this field (the lack of specific  bins could be an example). Products as oil, lamps, batteries or technology are not easy to be recycled.

# data[].attributes.body
In my case, instead of recycling I am prone to reduce purchases or packaging as well as hanging on to everything in order to reuse it. But inevitably recycling is imperative. At home we are good citizens and have 4 rubbish bins: plastics, paper, organics and the fourth one keeps waste such as batteries or light bulbs and other items for the Clean Point. Besides, medicines are taken to the chemist’s for safe disposal. And not reused or revamped cloths are given to charity.

# data[].attributes.body
I try to recycle everything as I can, also I try to give a second life to some things. For example the old newspapers are amazing for cleaning windows, the oil used to fry something can be good to make homemade soap and paper bags are one of the best ways to keep fresh some vegetables like potatoes

First and foremost be polite and responsible with the enviroment. For this reason we must reduce and recycle house hold waste, use eco-friendly produts, don't leave applicances on stand by, use wash economically or turn down the thermostat.
Those are some proposals to  help  the environment.
Another point about the benefits of use renewable energies like for example: solar panels, farm winds... which can help to reduce the global warming. outweigh the disadvantages like the prices.
Those alternatives can preserve, conserve and protect the Environment.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, one of the three “R” that is gaining strenght among environmentally aware people is the one meaning REUSE. In my case, at home we try to reuse as much as we can, for example, reusing cloths, paper, glass, fruit peels, used cooking oil… It is surprising how many things may have a second life with pretty small effort. I used to do crafts, but now I make most of all cleaning products as my own soap. There are many opportunities for reusing just by using common sense and creativity.

# data[].attributes.body
Nowadays, my family and I  recycle much more than before. But we only do it with plastic such as plugs, paper and cardboard. We try to fill the bag and go as the recycling bins catch us very far away.

The glass is not recycled but not for nothing if not because at home we do not use any glass.

Mazarron is not ready even for this process. There are few recycling bins. In fact the latest news from Mazarron recycles are from 2015 if I'm not mistaken.

I like to be informed about recycling program available in my area, in order to recycle as many things as possible from the waste of my house.

Nowadays in Mazarrón we can recycle many types of materials, plastic, glass, paper, frying oil, gadgets, all in separate containers.
But ...Is recycling the best way to help the Earth ? It´s a good first step but no the best solution,  that´s the reason why I tend to buy less packaged food, buy local product, buy second hand items, use my car only if  it´s necessary.
In other  words, I try to consume less and nearest products because It´s a great energy saving.

# data[].attributes.body
I usually recycle my domestic rubbish   like newspapers , water bottles, plastic , glass, organic waste, batteries and old gaggets.I  am used to putting them  into  different recycling bin. Now I´ve tried to reduce my household waste by buying products with less packaging and i tend to refuse   shopping plastic bags.
Finally, in the future  we all need to be living a greener lifestyle. As a result, We will be doing    a big contribution to protect the environmemt.

There are three key factors to recycle, to reduce,reuse,recycle at home.
It will always be better not to produce waste in the first place than to recycle it because recyclig takes energy.
To start with,
I recycle different materials:plastic,papel,
glass,textiles,batteries, mobiles phones,and so on. I have some recyclig bins at bins.

Secondly, I put everything in my local recycling bank.
For instante,
I put plastics into the appropiate container which is yellow color. Paper, in the blue container . I tend to read news online as opposed to buying paper newspapers. Regarding fabrics, I put them in the recyclig banks. The Local council provides the recyclings bins. Batteries in the recycling services. Glass bottles, in the green container.
I am used to composting my Kitchen and garden waste in my own bin in order to help my garden grow.
To sum up, in the future, people are likely to take care of the planet. I hope that this will definitely happen.

The three "R" can help us to conserve our planet.

The three "R" can help us to conserve our planet.

# data[].attributes.body
First of all, we have to learn to “REDUCE”. We usually waste more things than we need and we could change these bad habits. For instance, when we go shooping, we should take our own bag rather than getting even more plastic bags from the shoop. Secondly,there are different kinds of materials that we can “RECYCLE”.If we want to do a good job we must know which the right container to throw the litter is. For example, paper and paperboard must be deposited into a blue container. However, plastic will be left into a yellow container. By contrast, glass must throw away into the green igloo container. Most people confuse crystal with glass, so to differentiate them we should know that glass always has a cover. Moreover, we can toss organic rubbish into the grey container. Nowadays, we can recycle oil as well, for this purpose we have an orange container. And last but not least, we must “REUSE”, that means we can use something again. Take the example of my grandmother, who used to make her own soap and she taught me how to make it.  In some way, all of us can contibute to conserve our planet, because every little action counts.

Nowadays most people recycle plastic, paper and glass at home. We normally have recycling containers close to our home and we are understanding that recycling is a need.

In my eyes, the next step is reusing and reducing more. Sometimes, packaging is really unnecessary and we can reuse a lot. By surfing on the internet you can find several useful ideas about that. You can make a lot of household goods with recycled wood, plastic or cardboard.

Moreover, going to second-hand markets is another form to recycle. Sometimes, we throw out goods which we don’t need but they are perfect for another person.

# data[].attributes.body
Personally speaking, I must confess that I recycle glasses, plastic and cans, clothes and shoes,  although I find more difficult to do the same with the cardboard due to the fact that the carton recycle container is far away from home . Furthermore, I collect all the organic food and send it to a farm to feed animals (dogs, chicken, ect...), which I bet that they are grateful. Besides I switch off the lights whenever they are not needed, and of course, when I have a shower, I gather up the cold water in a bucket while the hot doesn't appear

I consider that nowadays,
one of the most significant
problems in our cities is the rubbish. Fortunately, we can take part on this issue by recycling, reusing and repairing. As far as I`m concerned, I am used to separating   all   my glasses, cardboard, plastic and paper as well.
Besides , I tend to carry to the supermarkets cloth bags or reusable bags.In addition, I always try to leave my old clothes in a special container designed for it. Finally, I would like to say that, althought I try to be greener,I have to recognize that , at the beginning, it took me a while to get used to it.

# data[].attributes.body
I always try to recycle all my plastic, paper and glass waste at home. Furthermore, in my work place we usually make compost with our own breakfast organic remains. Having said this, I consider that it is even more important to reduce our packaged goods consumption. Moreover, I usually take some reusable bags or even a shopping cart to the supermarket and I try to refuse the plastic bags provided by cashiers.

# data[].attributes.body
I recycle plastic soda or water bottles (I flatten them stepping on them), bottles and containers of glass, stoppers, tetra briks of milk, laminated containers of processed food products, frying oil, cans of tinned food, carton of postal deliveries... In fact, at home, many plastic containers of air-tight seal end up being reused as tupperwares or lunchboxes. Sometimes, we even reused the water from the shower when we have been several sharing bathroom. In fact, I don't like having the water tap open if I'm not using water at that instant, it seems a waste to me. When I go to buy I try to carry my own bag of washable fabric or mixed fabric also washable, and don't propagate the use of plastic bags, although I can't always fulfill this task. — Elena C.
