Why recycle???

- Landfills are filling up.
~ The cost of operating landfills is going up.
- New cans can be made out of old aluminum and empty aluminum cans.
~ Saves some energy that would be used to make new aluminum.
-Paper
~ Can be recycled many times

~Paper made from recycled paper uses 70% less energy
- Glass
~ Uses less energy to melt recycled glass, because it melts at a lower temperature.

-Making new things from recycled ones takes less money, less energy, and less of the Earth’s resources.

-Because less energy is used, factories don’t release as much pollution either.
