exercise so are you ready let's go three reasons why you should recycle do you like
your home do you enjoy your city and love hanging out by the beach in the
summer if you enjoy living on planet earth you might want to consider
taking on recycling for a change recent studies have shown that the
average American generates over five pounds of trash every single day can you
imagine that according to the EPA United States
Environmental Protection Agency it is estimated that 75% of trash can be
recycled but unfortunately only about 30% of all of the trash is actually
recycled in 2013 Americans generated about 254 million tons of trash and
recycled and composted about 87 million tons of this material this is equivalent
to a thirty four point three percent recycling rate there's still more to be
done but this is definitely a very significant number so why don't people
recycle I believe not everyone is aware of the consequences of not recycling or
they simply don't feel motivated to do so today I would like to share with you
three reasons why recycling is actually a very good idea number one it helps our
climate and global warming by recycling and using recycled products
we are in a way helping reduce the production of carbon which as a result
reduces the amount of unhealthy greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the
need of raw materials we preserve the natural resources we need to survive for
future generations number two saves you money how can you
save money by repurposing old products such as jam jars bottles and other
different kinds of containers coca-cola has recently released a campaign in some
countries where you get a discount whenever you buy a returnable coke
bottle what's the catch well when the coke in that bottle is over and you want
to get a new bottle instead of throwing that bottle away you have to bring it
back to the same convenience store where you first bought it and you get a
discount when you buy a new returnable bottle again one bottle can be reused up
to 25 times and they emit 62 percent less carbon there are so many other ways
you can save money through recycling go on the internet and I'm sure you will find
different ideas to help you save money number three it creates job
opportunities when you recycle these products are picked and brought to
processing facilities where they are sorted out and repurposed some items can
even be fixed and reused did you know there are more than 56,000 recycling and
reuse enterprises that employ about 11 million people from all over the world
just in the U.S. recycling is a two hundred and thirty six billion dollar a
year industry there you have it are you ready to start recycling
three reasons why you should recycle do you like your home do you enjoy your city
and love hanging out by the beach in the summer if you enjoy living on planet
