Benefits of Recycling

We cannot sustain our consumerist lifestyle without getting inundated by garbage and exhausting the earth's resources. The products that we use are wrapped in several layers of packaging material that are perfectly recyclable plastic, aluminum, paper, tin, wood, etc. Solid waste disposal experts engage in an uphill struggle to contain this virtual avalanche of garbage we produce everyday. It is apparent that digging a hole, a landfill, is clearly not the answer. Sooner or later, the waste becomes uncontainable and will spill into our farming areas, forests, and water sources.

Here are 7 good reasons why we should recycle:

• Financial Income.
• Recycling helps conserve limited resources.
• Recycling is energy efficient.
• Recycling builds community.
• Recycling creates jobs.
• Recycling builds a strong economy.
• Recycling is Earth-friendly.
