Recycling is the process of breaking down and reusing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash. Many communities and businesses make it easy to recycle by placing labelled containers in the open for public use or providing bins for home and business owners who have curbside pickup.

The first consequence from not recycling would be pollution. There are many different kinds of pollution. For example, the Styrofoam which carries water or coffee pollutes the ground by leaking nasty chemicals into the soil. If enough of these chemicals build-up, this can cause cancer. The air also gets polluted each time you drive your car. Plastic particles from water bottles and chemicals pollute our water – that’s why you should always recycle them.

However, if we threw everything away when it could be recycled, the landfill would fill up and would be unable to cope with this large load. It would also create unpleasant smells and end up being toxic from all the harmful chemicals which arise from the Styrofoam, batteries, microwaves, cleaning supplies and other household products. Making little recycling efforts helps substantially in keeping landfill sites under control. ]]> 2021-05-18 23:03:16 UTC https://padlet.com/khadejahlawes8/articleaboutRecycling/wish/1537746459 khadejahlawes8 https://padlet.com/khadejahlawes8/articleaboutRecycling/wish/1537752943 When we don’t recycle, reuse and reduce, we destroy natural habitats. As it is, our earth cannot cope with the current rate of destruction. By failing to reuse what we already have, we’ll end up in a sticky situation of running out of resources.  ]]> 2021-05-18 23:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/khadejahlawes8/articleaboutRecycling/wish/1537752943 khadejahlawes8 https://padlet.com/khadejahlawes8/articleaboutRecycling/wish/1537775199 Recycling reduces the need for extracting
 (mining, quarrying and logging)
refining and processing raw materials. All of these create substantial air and water pollution. As recycling saves energy it also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, which helps to tackle climate change. 

• Our Trash Gets Repurposed for Reuse.
• Reduced Consumption of Raw Materials.
• Prevents Air and Water Pollution.
• Less Waste for Landfills and Incinerators.

“Often when you think you're at the end of something, you're at the beginning of something else." “There is no such thing as 'away'. When we throw anything away it must go somewhere.” “When you put the whole picture together, recycling is the right thing to do.”
Recycle, It's Your Future. Recycle, Recycle, it's not hard to do, you can reduce pollution and help the world too. Recycle, recycle, recycle, it's the only way to go.
