1.
Why should I recycle?
Making new things from recycled ones takes less money, less energy, and less of the Earth’s resources. Because less energy is used, factories don’t release as much pollution either.
2.
Who recycles?
Everyone can recycle. You can recycle at home and at school. Your parents and other adults can recycle at work, and so can the companies they work for.
3.
What is reuse?
Reuse means just what it sounds like: using something again rather than throwing it out. That usually means finding a new use, such as making a jelly jar into a drinking glass.
Reuse conserves the energy and raw materials needed to make new products, and doing so saves energy and reduces the amount of pollution factories release into the air and water. By recycling or reusing plastic, metal, or glass items, you can reduce the need to mine, transport, and manufacture natural resources to make new products.
4.
How can I reduce the amount of trash I generate?
The best way to reduce the amount of trash you generate is to be a careful shopper. Don’t buy more than you need, especially if the product can go bad over time. As a consumer, you have purchasing power. As more and more people buy products that are reusable, refillable, or concentrated, manufacturers will take notice and produce more of these earth-friendly products.
