Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects. It is an alternative to conventional waste disposal that can save material and help lower greenhouse gas emissions. Recycling can prevent the waste of potentially useful materials and reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, thereby reducing energy usage, air pollution, and water pollution. Because of this, the recycling of waste material is becoming increasingly popular.

Benefits of recycling on the environment:

• Reduces the size of landfills
• Conserve natural resources
• More employment opportunities
• Offers cash benefits
• Saves money
• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions
• Saves energy
• Prevents loss of biodiversity
