Why recycle?

Waste has a negative impact on the environment; therefore recycling is the best way to have a positive impact on the world. Here are a few reasons why:

Environmental purposes: 

 ·     Landfill sites release harmful chemicals and greenhouse gasses into the environment. Recycling will help reduce the pollution which is caused by waste, this then helps to battle climate change. This can result in land contamination.

 ·     Current UK recycling is predicted to save more than 18 million tonnes of CO₂ a year – equivalent to taking 5 million cars off the road.  

 ·      Climate change is caused by deforestation. Recycling will result in reducing the need for raw materials so that rainforests can be preserved.

·         Finally, Energy is used when making raw materials, recycling will require less energy and therefore helps to preserve natural resources.

Welfare to humans and animals

If you do not recycle you can damage human and animal health and welfare. An example of this is primary and secondary exposure to toxic metals, such as lead, results mainly from open-air burning used to retrieve valuable components such as gold. Combustion from burning e-waste creates fine particulate matter, which is linked to pulmonary and cardiovascular disease.
