Why recycling is important
Kegan Rojas, Nick Pasch & Travis Faber - AG Topics Class
Recycling is becoming more popular in the everyday life of many Americans. Recycling helps to preserve our natural resources by reusing product material. Recycling reduces the amount of pollution emitted by factories that are using new resources to make products that can be made from recycled material. Less pollution and the decreasing need for new materials also helps to maintain the natural beauty of Earth. Because recycling reduces pollution, it also helps save energy and reduces global warming. The process of recycling can be followed through the three R’s; Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Beal City recycles by using the blue bins next to the trash receptacles.
