Recycling is becoming more important now, than ever before. As the world's population and economy grows, humans are using more and more of the planet's natural resources. These resources are not infinite and they require huge amounts of energy to extract and process.

By recycling materials wherever possible, we can help cut the consumption of the world's virgin resources, including wood for paper and card, as well as aggregates for glass.

Simply by adjusting some of our daily habits, we can massively increase the amount of recycling we achieve. If recycling is combined with reduction and reuse, it is possible to decrease your own waste by up to 80%, or more.
