Recycling

Metal and Plastic Recycling

Metals are valuable materials that may be recycled over and over without degrading their properties. Scrap metal has value, which motivates humans to gather it for sale to recycling operations. In addition to an economic incentive, there is also an environmental imperative. The recycling of metals permits us to hold herbal resources while requiring much less strength to technique than the manufacture of recent products using virgin raw materials. Recycling emits much less carbon dioxide and other harmful gasses.

Plastic recycling is the method of recovering scrap or waste plastic and reprocessing the material into useful products. Since the bulk of plastic is non-biodegradable, recycling is a part of international efforts to reduce plastic inside the waste stream, especially the about 8 million metric tonnes of waste plastic that enters the Earth's ocean each year.
