What is Recycling?
EPA defines recycling as, "a series of activities that includes collecting recyclable materials that would otherwise be considered waste, sorting and processing recyclables into raw materials such as fibers, and manufacturing raw materials into new products.“
Green Recycling
Why Should Recycling Matter to Me?
The EPA states that, "Recycling prevents the emission of many greenhouse gases and water pollutants, saves energy, supplies valuable raw materials to industry, creates jobs, stimulates the development of greener technologies, conserves resources for our childrens' future, and reduces the need for new landfills and combustors.“
Currently, the U.S. recycles approximately 32 percent of its waste which saves an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases to removing 39 million cars from the road.
According to the EPA, if an office building complex with 7,000 workers recycled all of it’s office paper waste for 12 months, it would be the equilavent of talking almost 400 cars off the road.
Recycled Product Statistics:
Recycled Plastics: Americans recycle less than 1% of the plastic bags they used annually Use 70% less energy to produce new plastic from recycled plastics Use 40% less energy to produce plastic bags versus paper bags Roughly 80% of the US population…nearly 200 million people…have access to a
plastics recycling program in their community
The typical office generates one pound of waste paper per employee, per day: 77% of that paper is recyclable Office paper can be recycled and made into paper towels, facial tissue, and
toilet tissue 40% of all waste in landfills are various forms of paper
Every ton of paper made from recycled materials: Uses 30%+ less energy to produce Saves 17 trees Saves 450 gallons of oil Saves 7 gallons of water Saves 225 kilowatt hours to produce Pollution is reduced by 95% when old paper is used to make new paper Frees up to 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space
