Help The Environment by Recycling
The nature has provided abundant resources for us to live with. But we humans use these resources for our convenience and we pollute the environment. This will transform earth to a non livable place. It is our responsibility to preserve the natural resources so that our successors can live a healthy life.
Everyone can definitely help the environment by recycling the things they use. You can recycle almost everything you use. It is better to buy recyclable items so that they can be recycled and a new material can be manufactured out of the scrap. If everybody of us keeps this in mind the emission of greenhouse gases and the other pollutions can definitely be controlled.
Recycling has many other advantages to. You can save the power by recycling the used products. Manufacturing a new product requires power and energy. When you recycle, you can save a large quantity of energy and power. Also manufacture involved the use of non renewable resources. By recycling you preserve these resources.
The waste materials are dumped into landfill sites. These sites will bury these products. This is good when all the waste materials are degradable. But a great percentage of your wastes are non bio degradable. These pollute the land and will affect the underground water. When the non bio degradable products are burned they emit gases that deplete the ozone layer in the atmosphere. This will result in more ultraviolet radiations reaching the living atmosphere which is very dangerous.
The end products of the recycling process are used as raw materials for the manufacture of other products. Getting these raw materials from the recycled products will preserve the environment as the resources that are used in the manufacture will be more. The recycling process requires investment in machineries and man power. New technologies have to be evolved to recycle very many products that we are using. Though this initial investment is requires, the long time effects are great as the environment is protected from depletion and pollution.
Recycling can start from reusing the products. Instead of buying use and throw products you can buy reusable products. This will considerably reduce the amount of waste you are dumping to the landfill sites. For example you can use the juice bottles as storage containers so that you can reuse the product for a long time. If every home employs reusing concept then at least 30% of pollution can be controlled.
Everybody must know the nearest recycling plant and should have the habit of submitting the wastes to these plants at least once a week. This will greatly help the environment as more and more products can be recycled when more and more products are accumulated in the recycling plant. When you purchase a product you must think of the extent to which it can be recycled.
Recycling plastic is very complex compared to the other materials that we use. Plastic products pose a great threat to the environment. Despite of this fact, plastic is used by everybody and for anything. When your purchase is small don’t prefer getting plastic bags from the shop. This will save millions of plastic wastes that are dumped to the land. Bio degradable plastic products are available and you can use them. The best help would be to sort the plastic wastes according to the types and submit them to the recycling plant.
When you purchase products for your home prefer buying recycled products and recyclable products. The recyclable products may cost more because of the recycling process that has been done.
