ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
Recycling help the environment in three
main ways:
1. Reduce the amount of rubbish sent
to the landfill
Reusing and recycling items means that
less waste has to be buried in the ground
in landfill sites, plus we save valuable
resources by turning waste into new
products! Burying less rubbish means we
have to build fewer landfill sites, which
frees up another important resource: land.
