Recycling is the process of converting wastematerials into new materials and objects. It is an alternative to conventional waste disposal that can save material and help lower greenhouse gas emissions which in return, helps the enviroment. 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. Recycling is a helpful way to keep the forests from being cut down as well due to the reusable products that are being recycled that can be reused.
