Being aware that there is a problem with people not recycling is the first step of solving the problem. Now that you know the pros and cons of recycling, you probably want to make a difference but wondering how to do this as an individual. Lucky for you, this site and our blog, http://www.ecomerge.blogspot.com, offers tons of options and opportunities to responsibly dispose of recyclable objects.
It is essential to remember that plastics are not bad, although when disposed or irresponsibly, they can be dangerous to the people, animals, and plants in the environment. The best thing that you can do to avoid these dangers is to think about the product you are using, and if it is recyclable. You’ll be surprised by the life changes you make in terms of recycling once you realize just how many items you use on a daily basis that should not just be thrown away. Plastic utensils, plastics water bottles, batteries, milk jugs, plastic bags, magazines, and steel and tin cans are all everyday items that can and should be recycled instead of just thrown in the trash.
So today, tomorrow, and the next day, think about the products you encounter and the items that you use and how you plan on disposing of them. Just taking a few seconds out of your day to think about whether or not a product is recyclable and then acting on those thoughts is the first step to making the difference in the world.
