3. 3R of Waste Management
• Think about this three ways
Reduce the amount of the Earth's resources that we use
Reuse Don't just bin it, could someone else make use of it?
Recycle Can the materials be made into something new?

4. Recycling
• What is Recycling?
Recycling is a process in which waste materials are treated in a way that
they can be used again
Recycling is a key component of modern waste management and is the third
component of the "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" waste hierarchy
Recyclable materials include many kinds
of glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics
Materials to be recycled are either brought to a collection center or picked up
from the curbside, then sorted, cleaned, and reprocessed into new materials
bound for manufacturing

5. Processes of Recycling
• Collecting
The first step required for recycling is collecting recyclable
materials from communities.
Families who recycle items such as paper, bottles and cans, place
the items in recycling collection bins. These bins usually have the
recycling symbol on them.

6. Processing
The second step involves processing the recyclable materials.
This includes sorting the materials into groups, cleaning them and
getting them ready to be sold to manufacturers who will turn the
materials into new products.

7. Manufacturing
Manufacturing is the third step in the recycling process. Many
items you may see every day are made from recycled materials.
Newspapers, paper towels, office paper, plastic bottles and
aluminum cans are not only made of recycled materials, but they
can also be recycled again.

8. Purchasing
The last step, but certainly not the least, involves the purchasing
of recycled products. When consumers purchase products that
have been made with post consumer material the recycling
process has been completed and can then be repeated. If you
have the choice to purchase a product made from recycled
materials, instead of one that was not, what do you think you
should do? It takes education and awareness to remember to
recycle and purchase recycled products.

9. Benefits of recycling
• Recycling helps reduce the amount of trash that is disposed of in
landfills.
• Recycling, rather than throwing things away, is also better for the
environment.
• Currently it is believed that the amount of carbon dioxide in the
earth’s atmosphere is causing global warming which can have
devastating long term effects.
• Recycling is one of many ways that people can cut down the
amount of carbon dioxide that is released into our atmosphere.
• Purchasing recycled paper is also better for the environment
because it takes less energy to produce recycled paper and
saves some trees along the way.

11. Recycling at home
• Apart from the items you may recycle at home, many other
things such as old tires, computers, mattresses, cars and more
are recycled for parts and materials
• The best way to avoid wasting valuable resources is to reduce
consumption in the first place. For items that are used and can’t
be re-used, recycling offers many benefits
• One of the best things you can do is learn more about recycling,
and especially to spread the word and encourage others to
recycle as much as possible. Does your family recycle? It is
never to late to start conserving our precious resources
