How Do I Recycle?

 

 

Recycling is the process of separating, collecting and remanufacturing or converting used or waste products into new materials.

 

 

The recycling process involves a series of steps to produce new products.

 

Recycling helps extend the life and usefulness of something that has already served its initial purpose by producing something that is useable. Recycling has a lot of benefits and importance not only to us humans but especially to our planet by reducing the waste stream, conserving our natural resources and energy.
