One reason everybody should recycle is animals are dying and starving. From garbage being everywhere. Acorrding to www.humanesocity.org they found birds poisined from lead weight. Also they found skunks with yogurt cups on their heads not being able to eat. Also pelicans had fishhooks in their stomachs. The worst that the have found was they found a raccoon with beer cans on its paws there was no fur, no skin, it's all flesh. Clearly almost everybody doesn't like to see animals suffer. That's why…
There are so many helpful things by recycling; by recycling you will save space in the landfill for something else that can not be recycled. You can use your food scraps for compost, along with your yard…
Recycling is the method of taking a product after it is done being used and using all or some of its parts to make another product. It is important to our planet because it reduces the waste in our landfills and the amount of energy in production. There are several benefits to recycling such as it conserves natural resources, decreases emissions of greenhouse gases, reduces the need for landfills and incineration, and helps to prolong the environment for the generations to come.…
Doug Bandow in “Recycling is Wasteful” claims recycling does not help the environment and is too costly to fund. He gives evidence and reasoning to explain why recycling is more harmful than we think. The authors sub claims are: recycling creates more pollution, resources are not scarce, an easier way of handling garbage, and lastly, recycling costs too much money.…
Recycling is an important way to keep our environment safe and clean for the children of the future. GOOD!!!…
The decision by the city commission to adopt curbside recycling is a step in the right direction — which is why we fully support its leadership on this issue. However, the decision by the city commission to make curbside recycling optional rewards the wrong behavior (polluting), and punishes the right behavior (recycling). Those who already recycle will choose to participate in curbside recycling and pay for it. Those who do not recycle…
Recycling has been a well known idea for so many years, but now we need it more than ever. Now in the world there are so many problems with the environment like Global Warming, toxic waste, and not to mention not recycling is very costly but recycling reduces the landfill space, helps conserves natural resources, and reduces the production of greenhouse gases . When you recycle you also help save animals so the rims of a six pack of soda doesn’t end up blocking a fish's gills or a plastic bag getting eaten by a turtle and having it choke on the bag. Recycling can also be a group effort where you get a group of people from your community, school, church, job, or just you and your friends so not only your saving the environment but your having fun with people you know while doing it.…
These days the recycling program is a necessity for daily life and the environment. Having the U.S. get rid of the recycling program would have multiple negative effects on the environment. By depreciating the amount of trash, it helps reduce the need to harvest new materials. Also, by recycling you are helping the community, hugely. By getting rid of this program the environment and the community around it will suffer.…
In conclusion, I think that recycling is a good alternative because it helps us get rid of waste materials that are no longer needed. Also, recycling is a good alternative because we can save money and reused some waste that are still in good condition. In addition, recycling protect the environment from harm. Overall, recycling is a way of life, in which we all should be part of to live a long and…
In the article, “Recycling Is Not Garbage” environmentally Defense fund scientist Richard A. Denison and economic analyst John F. Ruston rebut a series of myths that they say have been promoted by industrial opponents in an effort to undermine the environmentally valuable and successful recycling movement. One of them is that recycling is not necessary because landfilling trash is environmentally safe. But this statement is simply wrong. “In fact, 250 out of 1,204 toxic waste sites on the Environmental Protection Agency’s Superfund National Priority List are former municipal solid waste landfills” (Denison 280). That means landfills are major sources of air and water pollution, including greenhouse gas emissions. Another myth is that recycling is not cost effective, and should pay for itself. As discussed in “Recycling Is Not Garbage” an analysis of nine years of detailed data collected by the Seattle Solid Waste Utility shows that, after a two year startup period, recycling services saved the city's solid waste management program $1.7 to $2.8 million per year (Denison 281). Thus, we do not expect landfills or incinerators to pay for themselves, nor should we expect this of recycling. No other form of waste disposal, or even waste collection, pays for itself. Waste management is simply a cost society must…
Recycling is detrimental because 30% of people do not pick up their trash it will just sit there to rot. In the article, “Recycling Worth the Trouble Cost?,” it states 1,000 years-worth of trash would only fill a 35-square mile landfill that is 100 yards deep. This proves that we do not fill up a lot of space with trash like we do not need a huge landfill. In the article, “Cons Of Recycling,” it states originally costs $28 to send a ton of waste to the landfill while it cost $147 to recycle the same amount. This shows that it is not cheap to recycle, nothing is free.…

Recycling offers significant energy savings over manufacturing with virgin materials Manufacturing with recycled aluminum cans uses 95% less…
Recycling isn't just a good for the environment, it's also a good for society. We can see these positive effects on society today. Recycled material comes at a lower cost than raw material taken from the…
Recycling is a major part of our society. It is something that we as American citizens do daily without thinking twice about it. That is one of the main reasons I chose to write this paper on Recycling sustainability. The role of recycling to preserving our environment and to live in a sustainable way is a lot more important than many people think it is. One of the main reasons I chose to write this paper on recycling is because it is a major part of our everyday lives and it is something that most people and businesses do. As many people think they are helping by recycling, (do not get me wrong, it is a major help to our environment) they do not understand that it has major negative effects on the environment. Recycling is said to be the basis for sustainability. At…
Recycling is a very good thing for our envorment, but shouldn't be a law. Recycling should be a choice. Whether you do it or not you shouldn't be punished. In my opinion, everyone should recycle but just like anything else it should be up to the person.…
