Reduce, Reuse, RECYCLE!

Written by Claire Dunlay

There are many benefits of recycling. It helps reduce the amount of waste that is sent to landfills, it conserves natural resources, and it helps create jobs in the recycling industry.

Recycling helps to reduce the amount of waste that is sent to landfills. This is because recycling takes the materials that would otherwise be sent to landfills and turns them into new products. This reduces the amount of waste that is produced, and it also reduces the amount of space needed for landfills. There will be less waste if people recycle.

Recycling also conserves natural resources. This is because it takes less energy and resources to recycle materials than it does to extract new materials from the earth. This means that recycling can help to reduce the amount of pollution that is produced. Recycling will help conserve natural resources.

Finally, recycling helps create jobs in the recycling industry. This industry provides jobs for people to collect, sort, and process recyclable materials. These jobs can help to reduce unemployment and provide a living for people who might otherwise be unable to find jobs. Unemployment is a big problem in America, but recycling can help with that.

In conclusion, the benefits of recycling are many and varied, but the bottom line is that it is good for the environment. Recycling conserves natural resources, reduces waste sent to landfills, and creates jobs for people. So, if you’re looking for a way to help the environment, recycling is a great option.
