Benefits Of Waste Recycling To The Environment

Recycling is a process of converting waste materials into reusable products that would otherwise be thrown away. Biodegradable materials like paper, leftover food, gardening scrap, etc can be recycled. Paper can be recycled in paper manufacturing industries to make new paper.

And, leftover food residue, gardening scrap, etc can be recycled by way of composting like vermicomposting, commercial composting, direct composting, etc.

Recycling is very important as such junk has negative impacts on the earth. Such junk materials create many dangers if it is not disposed of properly. Wet debris directly dumped in dump yards generates harmful gases and creates various dangers to the atmosphere of the earth and living beings including humans. Recycling reduces junk creation, prevents pollution and preserves the balance of the environment and ecosystem.

Every one of us should explore new ways to recycle things and support minimum waste creation. We should always remember that together we can make a huge difference than fighting alone.

Let's find out the benefits of recycling scrap to the environment :

Spreads awareness

Recycling increases awareness among common people about the serious negative impacts of scrap on the mother-earth. Recycling enlightens them about the preservation of planet earth for future generations. Also, the burden of scrap on earth is reduced. It aware people of the 3R principle - Reduce, Recycle and Reuse and develops the habit of less scrap creation, reuse the products among people. People become more eco-conscious and start participating in other eco-friendly activities.

Fights global warming

Recycling reduces the demand for new fresh products. Therefore, collection costs, transportation costs associated with making fresh goods available in the market lessens. The volumes of harmful gas emissions in the atmosphere of the earth decreases and thereby increases nitrogen levels in the atmosphere and slows down the ozone depletion.

Reduces scrap generation

Recycling ensures proper disposal of biodegradable waste. Biodegradable junk includes leftover fruits and vegetables, potato peels, eggshells, etc. Such wastage gets easily decomposed in the soil, but it should be disposed of in a proper manner. Composting helps in proper disposal of biodegradable junk. It also gives compost which is again used in growing vegetables and fruits, plants, gardening, etc.  Therefore, waste creation is minimized.

Protects nature

Many trees are cut down to manufacture paper; it impacts birds and animals living in that area. Their natural habitats are destroyed and constant deforestation is leading to changes in the global climate as well. Recycling of paper saves many trees, forests, and wildlife. Also, it lessens pollution caused by paper industries. Recycling paper has also proved to be a cost-saving resource while manufacturing new papers.

Such organic scrap like leftover food items, bakery food, backyard junk, egg & crab shells, fast food, etc can be recycled using waste converting machines like Goldust. It organically decomposes wet scrap and produces manure. This produced manure can be used in gardening, farming and planting trees. It saves the environment as it reduces the amount of scrap sent to dump yards and reduces air pollution, soil pollution, etc. The whole process of composting is carried out in odorless, noiseless and maintenance-freeway.

An organic waste composting machine converts 85-90% of organic scrap into high-quality compost. Compost removal can be done once in 8-10 days. Contact LAHS Eco Engineering to obtain more information regarding Goldust.
