1.-We save energy and fight against climate change
If we recycle we reduce the work of extraction,
transportation and processing of new raw materials, which leads to a significant decrease in the use of the energy needed to carry out these processes.
At lower energy consumption, we generate less CO2
and reduce the greenhouse effect. In other words, recycling at home means helping the planet and helping to fight against climate change.
2.-We use less raw materials
If we recycle glass, paper or plastic, there is no longer
any need to make use of so many new raw materials to make products. In this way we will save a significant amount of natural resources and will conserve, among other things, our forests, the so-called lungs of the planet, whose work is fundamental to decontaminate the environment.
3.-We manufacture new products
Through recycling, new products are created. Although
you have never stopped to think about it, there are everyday objects that are born from recycling. Many shoe boxes have their origins in tetrabriks, a tire tire can be made with those same soda cans that you store in your refrigerator, and that polar liner that shelters you so much has its origin in PET plastic bottles. Keep in mind that these products require less water and energy, and generate less pollution during the process. There are many companies that have implemented ecodesign with the aim of designing but respecting the environment. They even reuse objects as diverse as traffic signs or tires and give them a totally different use.
4.- We create jobs
Recycling at home means preserving the environment
and something as important as helping to create and maintain jobs. Because the waste recycling process requires companies and workers to collect the different materials and classify them.
5.- We preserve the environment
If we recycle, the industry pollutes less air by reducing
the amount of greenhouse gas emissions, we protect our soils because the waste goes to the corresponding place and does not accumulate in the waters of our rivers and seas. By using organic waste for the composting of our gardens or crops, we avoid chemical fertilizers.
