Let's Recycle

Start Recycling: Recycling is a great Start to Save the Earth 

Recycling is converting our used items or materials into something useful. In order to prevent wastage, reduce the use of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air, water and soil pollution. Recycling is the major components of modern waste management and is the third component of the waste hierarchy “Reduce, Reuse and Recycle” or 3R.

Recycling is now available in many parts of the cities and towns. Some recycling companies collect the recyclable materials free of charge from house and office. Communities can also resell their unwanted items and get some money out of it. Some societies do recycling to help charity homes by locating their recycling bins/boxes in different parts of the cities and town, and collecting them according to a regular schedule.

Sometimes we overlook and forget about the environmental safety issues like throwing away one side of a paper when the other side of it can be reused. Instead of throwing recyclable materials into the recycling bins we choose to throw them into regular rubbish bins; we are lazy to wash our utensils so we use plastic utensils which can be easily disposed of after having a delicious meal. For cool and comfort, some of us put on the air-conditioners day and night even if we are going out, not bothering about the energy wastage and harmful effect it has on the environment.

The local council bin that is overflowing and stinks around the communities emits toxic gases which pollutes the air we breathe. Most of the things what goes into those bins can be recycled. And it will stop useful resources from going to landfills. It just takes a few steps to do recycling and make a huge impact (difference) on the earth we live in. A lot of people were ignorant about recycling their used items before, but now people can appreciate the good they can bring by adopting recycling and they want to do their part to save the earth.

Saving the earth is not only a City Council, NGO’s or other organizations’ role, all of us have a part to play. With the number of natural disasters growing high every day, it is almost as if the earth is crying out loud for our help. Everyone is involved in making our environment a better, safer and happier place. So, let's start recycling!
