Recycling

Hall, Eleanor J. Recycling. 2005. 48p. ISBN 0-7377-1517-0. Available at 363.72 HAL on the library shelves.


Recycling has become a mainstream industry in the United States with all sorts of things being recycled, from paper, plastics and metals to electronic devices, cars, and even old building materials. But many people are not familiar with the actual process and benefits of recycling. This short book aims to provide general information on the subject.

In four chapters, the topic of recycling is explored, from what it is to the challenges that it faces. Reasons to recycle are discussed, as well as what the future of recycling is likely to be. Changes to our environment can indeed be local, and anyone can take steps to help reducing consumption, reusing materials whenever possible, and recycling as much as possible.
