RECYCLE!!

Everyone knows it's better to recycle an item than to throw it away. It's good for the environment, rewarding, and, in some areas, can earn you spare change. Recycling helps to cut domestic waste that would otherwise be buried in landfills and provides a steady supply of pre-used materials that can be transformed into new, practical objects that we use everyday. Recycling is beneficial to the environment and to us.

The recycle symbol!Always look for it on an item to see if it is recyclable

steps:

1.Find out what recycling programs or centers exist in your area. It's useless trying to recycle something if no processing center exists.
2.Determined what categories of items can be recycled in your area, then designate a separate location for each category. For example, if a nearby center accepts aluminum cans, plastic drink bottles, and newspapers, you will want to have separate bins for each type of item, as well as a waste bin for non-recyclable wastes.
3.Leave your bins in an appropriate collection area, or take your recycling to a processing center yourself once you've accumulated enough to make it worth the trip.

Some centers require you to wash items or remove labels or lids. Find out what your center requires before making the trip.
Try to avoid making special trips in your car to recycle, as you will be using fuel unnecessarily. Combine it with a trip you are making anyway.
If you are in school or at work where you use a lot of paper and then throw it away.

try having a recycling bin under your desk, or a recycling pocket in your file. Make a mental note to put all recyclable paper in there each time you feel like heading for the normal trash bin.
Don't just think of the normal items you can recycle, do some research and expand it. Some things you might be able to recycle easily are:
Batteries (important)- car batteries, equipment batteries, flashlight
Beer and wine bottles, jars, other glass items
Paper and plastic bags (reuse first if possible)
Magazines, newspapers, phone-books
Plastic bottles, plastic containers
Cans and tins
Juice/soup/milk cartons
Any items with recycle symbol on them
