Reduction, reutilisation and recycling

Have you ever thought about the footprint you and your community leave on the environment every day?
With what frequency are objects recycled?
Do people usually take into account the plastic footprint left by their purchases?

Do most people recycle their waste?

If not, then you will surely learn about it with this study.

During may 2022, we conducted a survey to gather information about the consumption habits and recycling knoledge of the IES Cabrera Pinto community, whose results are presented within the following graphics

What is the most confusing object to recycle?

do you really know how to recycle?

Apparently most people recycle; however, do they know how to do it correctly? When asked about the containers they would put different materials in, all people gave correct answers to paper and plastics; however, there were errors when referring to less common objects.

Glass Organic Oil Bricks Clothing Crystal

Nevertheless, there were errors when it came to glass, organic waste, oil, bricks / juice boxes, clothing and crystal. This means that, despite thinking we know what we are doing, some of us are still misinformed; which is why have included the correct containers and disposal information.
how often are disposable objects ...?
Most people answered that they recycled most of the time or always and that the products they recycle the most are plastic bottles, paper and carton. The ones they recycle the least are wipes and tissues (which were also classified as the hardest to recycle) this means that people do not dispose of them correctly due to a lack of information.

Our results show that hygiene products are often the hardest to recycle, followed by electronic devices, although 26% of people said they had no doubts when recycling.

Only sometimes

Only sometimes

As shown by these graphs, disposable objects are very commonly bought and not as often reused. This is due to the fact that these products are designed not to be repurposed and to be thrown away immediately. Despite people answering they sometimes or frequently recycled them, this cannot be done with every single one of these products, because most of them are mixtures of inseparable, polluting materials.

Conclusions

Overall, the results of our survey have been quite positive. Most people claimed that they recycled frequently and had a decent knowledge of this process. Nevertheless, misinformation has proven to be a huge inconvenience in the reduction of pollution. The least recycled products often matched with the hardest ones to recycle, meaning that consumer's lack of knowledge towards these objects, is the main reason as to why they are not recycled.

In conclusion, our future is looking bright, since people are trying to be less harmful towards the environment; however, we still need to do better. The best and most important changes we can do are to educate ourselves and other people, to avoid misinformation and facilitate recycling of all products; as well as trying to reduce our consumption of plastics and most importantly, disposable objects.

When it comes to disposable products, which are not designed to be reused, results were also hopeful. People ensured they tried to recycle them and sometimes even found ways to reuse them. However, they are still very commonly bought, due to their usefulness and abundance, which is something that we ought to avoid. In regards to plastics, approximately half the population is trying to reduce it and is paying closer attention to this material during purchases.

"El Camino Largo" 16/05/2022

Recycling is a process whose objective is to convert waste into new products or raw material for later use.

Reduction is the process of decreasing our waste and consumption to thereby alleviate our damage to the ecosystem.

Reutilisation is to give products a second life or use; which means that, instead of throwing things away, with this process you can find other uses for them and reduce your waste and consumption.

Brown container : This bin is mostly dedicated to organic waste such as meat and fish remains; fruits, vegetables, eggs and even dirty papers stained by organic substances. Oil does not go here.

Recycling center : This is an installation that gathers, stores and transports waste that cannot be easily sorted out or thrown away by people. Oil, clothing, crystal and electronic devices can be disposed of here; although some countries have specific containers to recycle oil and clothes (you can also donate clothes to charities that gather them).

Yellow container : This container is dedicated mostly to plastics, but not all of them. Plastic packaging, bottles of water, rings that hold the packs of cans, yogurt and butter containers belong to this color; as well as some small metallic objects such as tin or soft drink cans, aluminum and metal caps. Brick packages should also be thrown here.

Blue container : This container is dedicated to paper and cardboard, it is as simple as that. Cardboard egg cups, newspapers, books and magazines also go there.

Green container : This one is specifically restricted to glass (it does not include crystal). If we are going to throw bottles, we have to throw them without their cap.

This is a picture taken by one of us, that shows the current state of El Camino Largo. In comparison to the previous photo, this one shows a paved street, surrounded by buildings, not just an earth path, defined by trees. The increase in population and touristic interest have urbanized natural areas and given our landscape huge changes.

Although this path is not necessarily a highly inhabited area, it is nowadays crossed by hundreds of people, its surroundings are no longer just trees, but also houses and walls covered in graffiti, its floor is no longer soil, it is the pavement that covers most of our cities in the present day. In short, this, like most places on Earth, has been changed to fit modern life.
