Myths and facts about Recycling

Image
Myth I don’t need to worry about separating anything,i can throw everything I want into a blue bin and the city will sort it out. Fact Consumers in many areas no longer had to sort their recycling by the type of material, let alone by the color of the glass or the numbered category stamped on the bottom of plastics. They could simply place all their recyclables into one container. Myth It’s pointless recycling food waste, it breaks down naturally Fact False! A single apple core left under a tree in a forest is fine, but 10million tonnes of food waste squashed into landfill sites is most certainly not. Myth Recycling costs more money than sending rubbish to landfill Facts False! While the process of recycling an item is more expensive than simply chucking it in landfill, it actually works out a lot cheaper to go to the effort of giving it a new lease of life.  Waste management is an investment in the ecology as well as future.

The result of this can be seen clearly in the many environmental challenges facing our planet today. We have reached the stage where urgent action needs to be taken on global level. It’s also important, however, to make our own individual contributions to creating a greener environment.                                               Before we examine how we can do our bit to improve the environment, we should have to take a look at the biggest problems facing it. We all read the headlines about conflicts across the world and the dreadful consequences of them, but the biggest problem facing our planet today is gl
