It all goes back to the history of recycling. Starting in 1900, people recycled pots, pans, and other metals by melting them down. But as more plastic products were made, Recycling got confusing and codes were created. Thus, recycling codes are important so you know what to recycle. Now, recycling is more important than ever. Incentive programs are encouraging people to recycle more and help the environment. Recycling is done all over the world. In certain countries, some programs pay you for recycling products. Recycling is the third ‘R’ of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. As you contribute your bit towards recycling and making the environment clean, keep the following in mind:
If you don’t need something then don’t buy it. By this, you would be reducing the amount of waste you produce. If there is a necessity to buy, go for something that has very less amount of packing, the product that can be reused or something that can be composted. Buy products that are eco-friendly. Try buying the products that are made of recycled material. Paper and plastic are some examples of recycled products.Before throwing anything, think a way to reuse that item ,plastic containers can be used to store items in the refrigerator,old items can be given to charitable organizations where they can be utilized,cans and containers so we must recycling.
