Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new products to prevent the waste of potentially useful materials, reduce consumption of fresh raw materials, lower energy usage, decrease pollution, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It involves collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and transforming them into new items. Commonly recycled materials include paper, glass, metals, and plastics. The recycling process typically includes collection, sorting, cleaning, and reprocessing of materials. By recycling, we can conserve resources, save energy, and reduce the impact of waste on the environment, thus promoting sustainability and responsible resource management.
