How does recycling benefit the environment?
Easy and simple: If you recycle, it reduces the energy to make brand new products. Not only that, if we recycle things, it keeps the land fills from piling up, and sometimes end up on the ocean and streams. Those big factories don’t always help making new products either as it pollutes the air to make new things other than just recycling things and save more energy. Also, if it deals with trees (like paper) if we recycle paper, it means that we won’t have to cut down so many trees. Trees are good to the environment by helping keep our air fresh and clean. It provides homes to animals and shade on those hot summer days. So, trees=good. no trees=bad. I hope this helped you understand more about recycling.
