Environmental Importance!!!

• Harmful chemicals and greenhouse gasses are released from rubbish in landfill sites. Recycling helps to reduce the pollution caused by the waste.

• Habitat destruction and global warming are some of the affects caused by deforestation. Recycling reduces the need for raw materials so that the rainforests can be preserved.

• Huge amounts of energy are used when making products from raw materials. Recycling requires less energy and therefore helps to preserve natural resources.
