Saving the environment through recycling

Wednesday, 18 April 2018


IT is good to know that people of our country are gradually realising the benefits of using recycled products and the process of recycling as a whole. It has already become a buzzword in developed countries.
Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into new useful products. It is a process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects. It is also an alternative to conventional waste disposal that can save material and help lower greenhouse effects. Recycling can prevent the waste of potentially useful materials and reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, thereby reducing energy usage, air and water pollution.
Recycling is already in the nature and we just need to follow it. Recycling can benefit our community and the environment. In the long run, the benefits will be immense for our environment. If we adopt recycling in our life it will converse our natural resources such as trees, water and minerals we save valuable energy which in turn will have sustainable effect on the environment. Sadly we are apathetic towards our environment and in this way we have already damaged it greatly. We now need to create awareness about the benefits of recycling. We should keep our earth in a better shape than what we inherited from the past. It is the least we can do for the future generation. It is high time to act together and use recycled products.
