WHY IS RECYCLING IMPORTANT?
1. Recycling helps to preserve ecosystems and wildlife by causing less environmental impact. Animal harm is avoided when we clear fewer trees and forests. We contribute to the preservation of ecosystems and species by minimizing interruption and damage to the natural environment.
2.Protection of Natural Resources Recycling aids in the conservation of some of the natural resources that the world is running low on. Paper recycling helps preserve forests and trees. Plastic can take hundreds of years to decompose and requires a lot of solid waste when it is recycled. Additionally, the majority of plastic is made from hydrocarbons found in fossil fuels. Metal recycling decreases the requirement to mine new metal ores, while glass recycling decreases our need for
3. Saves Energy Making products from recycled materials requires less energy than making them from new, raw materials. It takes much less energy to make products out of recycled materials than from raw materials. For example, recycling one glass bottle saves enough power to light a 100-watt light bulb for four hours.
4. Reduces the Need to Harvest New Materials When we recycle, it reduces our need to harvest raw materials. Our increasing demand for these raw materials also displaces people who live near forests or around river systems. When we recycle, we reduce the possibility of damaging someone else’s land or community.
5. Reduces Carbon Emissions Recycling takes up less energy, which reduces our carbon footprint and emissions. Reducing our carbon footprint helps minimize methane-release waste from landfill sites, which contributes to climate change.
