Recycling and Waste Reduction
|
Within the last 35 years, the amount of waste each person creates has almost doubled from 2.7 to 4.6 pounds per day. In a sustainable community, waste is not a problem to be disposed of, but a resource to be used and reused. Responsible waste management involves:
Reduction of waste; Reuse of waste materials; Recycling of goods;
and Buying products made from recycled content. These actions
save money and reduce greenhouse gas emissions
by decreasing the consumption of raw materials
and energy used during manufacturing,
transportation, and disposal.
