Recycling is the process by which waste products are used again and aims to recover, direct or indirect, the components that contain urban waste.

Generally the waste materials that are recycled are the following (although not necessarily the only ones):

Organic trash

Organic waste is the remains of food and any waste of plants or animals.

Paper trash

We must recycle old notebooks and all the paper we can. In the same way, we must use paper that is already recycled, in this way we avoid excessive felling.

Plastic garbage

The recovery of plastic is essential as it is a non-biodegradable material. We should never throw it out of its recycling circuit.

Glass garbage

The best thing is to deposit the bottles or glass jars in the containers authorized for such use in the cities. In this way it is possible to close the circle and produce a bottle from which it is thrown.

Metal garbage

Tin cans and other types of metals are a non-renewable resource. This type of materials have a very profitable recovery.

Batteries garbage

batteries are a very polluting residue. If the batteries are not collected properly it causes serious problems to the Environment. They also produce serious problems in Health.

Trash light bulbs

Recycling a light bulb avoids the emission of 10 kilos of CO2 into the atmosphere, hence the importance of recycling each lamp used.

What to recycle?

Recycling is one of the simplest and most rewarding daily activities we can carry out. So much, that any member of the family can participate. Recycling helps us to take care of our planet, take care of our soil and without recycling we would live in a contaminated place full of diseases. That is why it is very important to recycle garbage.

Electronic waste

Electronic waste or "e-waste" is not only one of the most polluting waste for the environment contaminating water and soil, but also a danger to the health of people and other living beings.
