RECYCLE, REDUCE, REUSE
Benefits of Recycling
Recycling protects and expands U.S. manufacturing jobs and increases U.S.
competitiveness.
Recycling reduces the need for land filling and incineration.
Recycling prevents pollution caused by the manufacturing of products from
virgin materials.
Recycling saves energy.
Recycling decreases emissions of greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change
Recycling conserves natural resources such as timber, water, and minerals.
Recycling helps sustain the environment for future generations
Benefits of Reduction
Saves natural resources. Waste is not just created when
consumers throw items away. Throughout the life cycle of a product from
extraction of raw materials to transportation to processing and manufacturing
facilities to manufacture and use waste is generated. Reusing items or making
them with less material decreases waste dramatically. Ultimately, less materials
will need to be recycled or sent to landfills or waste combustion facilities.
Reduces toxicity of waste. Selecting nonhazardous or less
hazardous items is another important component of source reduction. Using less
hazardous alternatives for certain items (e.g., cleaning products and
pesticides), sharing products that contain hazardous chemicals instead of
throwing out leftovers, reading label directions carefully, and using the
smallest amount necessary are ways to reduce waste toxicity.
Reduces costs. The benefits of preventing waste go beyond
reducing reliance on other forms of waste disposal. Preventing waste also can
mean economic savings for communities, businesses, schools, and individual
consumers.
Businesses. Industry also has an economic incentive to
practice source reduction. When businesses manufacture their products with less
packaging, they are buying less raw material. A decrease in manufacturing costs
can mean a larger profit margin, with savings that can be passed on to the
consumer.
Consumers. Consumers also can share in the economic
benefits of source reduction. Buying products in bulk, with less packaging, or
that are reusable (not single-use) frequently means a cost savings. What is good
for the environment can be good for the pocketbook as well.
