recycle

Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into new products. This helps to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators, conserves natural resources, and helps to protect the environment.

There are many different materials that can be recycled, including paper, plastic, metal, glass, and electronics. When you recycle these materials, they are sorted and cleaned, then melted down or shredded into new materials that can be used to make new products.

For example, recycled paper can be used to make new paper products, such as notebooks and cereal boxes. Recycled plastic can be used to make new plastic products, such as toys and bottles. Recycled metal can be used to make new metal products, such as cans and cars. Recycled glass can be used to make new glass products, such as bottles and windows.

Recycling is a great way to help the environment. It reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators, conserves natural resources, and helps to protect the air and water quality.

The city has a recycling program that collects paper, plastic, and metal.
