| Camisha | I think this is a great way for people to try to recycle bottles, paper products, and many other things that we just throw out on the streets.

| hahahahahahaha | LadyFlirt The importance of recycling can be observed in multiple ways. If you are wondering in your mind as to "why I should recycle" then here are some causes which should convince you to do so. Recycling Saves Energy Recycling Saves Environmental Conditions and Reduces Pollution Recycling Saves Natural Resources Economic Benefits Recycling Saves Space for Waste Disposal Today 1:25:00 PM Vanessa Roxanne luv it! so awesome! 2/24/2009 Daranee this website is awesome! it helped me find examples and other info for my 'why is recycling important' essay! thanks guys! 2/24/2009 Amberiesha This site is cool because it has the little greeen people holding hands lmfao! 2/20/2009 OSU College Kid Recycling products creates more pollution than making it from raw materials. There was an EPA report about it. Recycling does not save more energy than merely throwing it away. You still need trucks to pick up materials to be recycled, the energy required by workers to sort it, and the energy used in processing it. We are not running out of landfill space. There is a large amount of untapped land in Midwestern America, among other places. Landfills also have strict environmental guidelines to protect groundwater and other contamination. Some even power towns with the methane produced through decomposition. There are more trees now than in 1920. Trees are specifically planted for milling. Recycling costs more than dumping in landfills. It's roughly $50 a ton for landfill usage, compared to $150 average for recycling materials. Recycling aluminum is the only recycling process cheaper than making new aluminum from bauxite ore. Creating Make-Work jobs is useless. The money could be better spent elsewhere. Recycling costs Americans $8 billion in taxpayers money from subsidies used to pay for recycling. Greenhouse gases are 95% water vapor. We put less than 1% of gas emissions into the air. Reduce waste, save the Earth, save energy, do anything: but get the facts first. Don't waste your time destroying the environment. 2/13/2009 Annie Rodriguez GOOD WEBSITE... 2/13/2009 Annie Rodriguez recycling is going to help everyone b/c the world will be a better place to live, also the atmosphere pollution is going to decrease... with rectcling we are going to have more economic benefits and we are going to be saving more natural resources... 2/13/2009 jazmine i think this is nice 2/11/2009 raj tailor it is very good reasons of why is recycling important 2/10/2009 OSU College Kid Recycling products creates more pollution than making it from raw materials.

When new products are manufactured from ‘virgin materials’, the amount of energy consumed is much higher. Besides, the energy required to acquire and transport the ‘virgin’ raw materials from their origins or natural sources is also saved. Add to that the energy which is required to clean and protect the environment from the pollutant waste products, especially those which are non-biodegradable (plastic) and fill up the landfill areas. Recycling Saves Environmental Conditions and Reduces Pollution Recycling helps in preventing global climate change to a great extent. By minimizing the energy spent on industrial production, recycling also helps in reducing greenhouse gas emission. Some of the major fossil fuels used in most industries include coal, diesel, gasoline etc. All these emit harmful gases such as methane, sulfur dioxide, carbon-dioxide to the environment. The processing of fresh raw material also creates toxic materials which pollute the environment. By reducing the energy used, recycling also minimizes the amount of fuel usage which in turn reduces the amount of harmful pollutants in the environment. Recycling Saves Natural Resources We know that recycling involves the processing and usage of the core elements of an old product for the production of new products. This helps in saving our natural resources to a great extent. For example, once an old newspaper is recycled we do not need to use the resource of another tree to produce new paper products. This way, proper recycling can help us preserve our natural resources for our future generations and maintain the balance of the nature. Economic Benefits Similar to energy and natural resource, recycling also helps in saving a lot of expense, demanded for the production of new products from ‘virgin’ materials. These expenses include the entire production cycle starting from acquiring the raw materials, transferring them from their origin to production places, processing and manufacturing costs. Recycling process creates employment opportunities for a lot of people, involved in the various stages of the process. This in turn contributes to the economic development of the state or country. Recycling Saves Space for Waste Disposal Most of the landfill sites are filled up with a lot of waste products that could have been recycled effectively. Some of these waste materials belong to non-biodegradable category which takes a long time to decompose. Recycling enables proper usage of these waste products and saves space for landfills. The pace with which landfills are getting filled up, soon we might run short of landfills unless we start following recycling at our own home and spread the word to others. 1/29/2009 lalala hey this rlly helped me out on this noe research paper i am doing for school 1/28/2009 Haiely h great sight 1/28/2009 Leanne Recycling generates cash, creates jobs, helps us towards sustainable living, costs loss, reduces our impact on climate change and saves raw materials...wooo go me! 1/23/2009 love i think that recycling is a very good thing ang everybody should do it.

If you are wondering in your mind as to "why I should recycle" then here are some causes which should convince you to do so. Recycling Saves Energy Recycling Saves Environmental Conditions and Reduces Pollution Recycling Saves Natural Resources Economic Benefits Recycling Saves Space for Waste Disposal |

| OSU College Kid | Recycling products creates more pollution than making it from raw materials. There was an EPA report about it. Recycling does not save more energy than merely throwing it away. You still need trucks to pick up materials to be recycled, the energy required by workers to sort it, and the energy used in processing it. We are not running out of landfill space. There is a large amount of untapped land in Midwestern America, among other places. Landfills also have strict environmental guidelines to protect groundwater and other contamination. Some even power towns with the methane produced through decomposition. There are more trees now than in 1920. Trees are specifically planted for milling. Recycling costs more than dumping in landfills. It's roughly $50 a ton for landfill usage, compared to $150 average for recycling materials. Recycling aluminum is the only recycling process cheaper than making new aluminum from bauxite ore. Creating Make-Work jobs is useless. The money could be better spent elsewhere. Recycling costs Americans $8 billion in taxpayers money from subsidies used to pay for recycling. Greenhouse gases are 95% water vapor. We put less than 1% of gas emissions into the air. Reduce waste, save the Earth, save energy, do anything: but get the facts first. Don't waste your time destroying the environment. |

| happy teddy | there is this website called Redtube, u guys should check it out, it has alot of information | 1/29/2009 |
| fact r us | When new products are manufactured from the raw material obtained from recycled products, it saves a lot of energy which is consumed for the production. When new products are manufactured from ‘virgin materials’, the amount of energy consumed is much higher. Besides, the energy required to acquire and transport the ‘virgin’ raw materials from their origins or natural sources is also saved. Add to that the energy which is required to clean and protect the environment from the pollutant waste products, especially those which are non-biodegradable (plastic) and fill up the landfill areas. Recycling Saves Environmental Conditions and Reduces Pollution Recycling helps in preventing global climate change to a great extent. By minimizing the energy spent on industrial production, recycling also helps in reducing greenhouse gas emission. Some of the major fossil fuels used in most industries include coal, diesel, gasoline etc. All these emit harmful gases such as methane, sulfur dioxide, carbon-dioxide to the environment. The processing of fresh raw material also creates toxic materials which pollute the environment. By reducing the energy used, recycling also minimizes the amount of fuel usage which in turn reduces the amount of harmful pollutants in the environment. Recycling Saves Natural Resources We know that recycling involves the processing and usage of the core elements of an old product for the production of new products. This helps in saving our natural resources to a great extent. For example, once an old newspaper is recycled we do not need to use the resource of another tree to produce new paper products. This way, proper recycling can help us preserve our natural resources for our future generations and maintain the balance of the nature. Economic Benefits Similar to energy and natural resource, recycling also helps in saving a lot of expense, demanded for the production of new products from ‘virgin’ materials. These expenses include the entire production cycle starting from acquiring the raw materials, transferring them from their origin to production places, processing and manufacturing costs. Recycling process creates employment opportunities for a lot of people, involved in the various stages of the process. This in turn contributes to the economic development of the state or country. Recycling Saves Space for Waste Disposal Most of the landfill sites are filled up with a lot of waste products that could have been recycled effectively. Some of these waste materials belong to non-biodegradable category which takes a long time to decompose. Recycling enables proper usage of these waste products and saves space for landfills. The pace with which landfills are getting filled up, soon we might run short of landfills unless we start following recycling at our own home and spread the word to others. |
