7. Recycling
Recycling is a process to change (waste) materials into
new products to prevent waste of potentially useful
materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw
materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution
(from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling)
by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal,
and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to
plastic production.Recycling is a key component of
modern waste reduction and is the third component of
the "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" waste hierarchy.
8. Recycling Bins
- A recycling bin is a container used to hold
recyclables before they are taken to recycling
centers. Recycling bins exist in various sizes for use
in homes, offices, and large public facilities. Separate
containers are often provided
for paper, tin or aluminum cans,
and glass or plasticbottles.
- Many recycling bins are designed to be easily
recognizable, and are marked with slogans promoting
recycling on a blue or green background along with the
universal recycling symbol. Others are intentionally
unobtrusive. Bins are sometimes different colors so
that user may differentiate between the types of
materials to be placed in them. While there is no
universal standard, the color blue is commonly used to
indicate a bin is for recycling in public settings.
11. Solutions for the waste problems
-People should divide their rubbish and
put it in the recycle bins so they can
recycle easier and useful for the planet.
- There should be penalties for throwing
the rubbish on the streets.
- There should be more dustbins for
recycling.
