Recycling

Recycling waste, wastewater, and wasted energy

is an effective way to reduce greenhouse gases.

A climate solution!

 

When you receive a package, it is important to recycle the packaging.

Buying locally will reduce packaging.

When you receive your package, carefully remove the item from its packaging, which you should keep in case you need to return your purchase.

 

Paper and cardboard soiled with grease.

To avoid contaminating recyclable materials, use the compost bin if your paper and cardboard are soiled.

Also, waxed paper, stickers, and metal-coated packaging are not recyclable.

 

Recycle, reuse, and upcycle.

Three actions designed to protect the environment, generating different results.

  • Recycling is the process of crushing objects so that the basic components can be used to create new consumer-ready products.

Often of lower quality.

  • Reuse reduces waste and pollution.

A cardboard box can be used again to store items in a closet.

  • Upcycling doesn't convert objects, but rather reshapes them to create a high-quality, functional product.

Fabric scraps can be used to create a new garment.
