What are the benefits of recycling old products instead of buying new ones?

 What are the benefits of recycling old products instead of buying new ones?

Recycling brings economic, social, and environmental benefits when we participate in a

comprehensive program, which;

1.Conserves natural resources; In conserving natural resources by recycling we reduce the amount of new exploration, excavation, and development required to keep society functioning. Most of the materials used to create the goods and products we use in everyday life are finite. The benefit under this head is enormous.

2. Decreases ecosystem destruction as the number of delicate ecosystems get spared of impacts by resource extraction.

3. Reduces waste (amount of waste we create decline) and landfill quantum and the need to create new landfill space.

4. Reduces greenhouse gas emissions and the number of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere gets eliminated.

5. Shrinks other forms of pollution.

6. Saves energy.

7. Creates jobs.

8.Lower the overall pollution of our air, water, and land by not extracting new resources

every time we need something.

9. Increases the investment in eco-friendly infrastructure

10. Improves resource allocation to recycling programs and facilities

11. Reduces waste by converting garbage and recycling vehicles to electric.

12. Grows the circular economy involved in all reduce, reuse, and repurpose activities.

13. Saves money by lowering how often people need to buy brand-new items, thus help shrink your carbon footprint by: a) Eliminating the need for new packaging to be created. recycling and reusing only eliminates need for new packaging b) Cutting out the CO2 released when transporting new products to the store and c) Making sure you don’t buy more than you need.
