Answer to Question 2

Recycling encompasses collecting, reprocessing, marketing, and reusing materials once considered trash. As a path toward sustainability, recycling accomplishes the following:
Preserves natural resources: Reprocessing used materials to make new products and packaging reduces the consumption of natural resources. Recycling steel saves iron ore, coal, and limestone. Recycling newsprint, office paper, and mixed paper saves trees.
Saves energy: Recycling used aluminum cans, for instance, requires only about 5 percent of the energy needed to produce aluminum. Recycling just one can saves enough electricity to light a 100 watt bulb for 312 hours.
Reduce greenhouse gas emissions: Recycling cuts these gases by decreasing the amount of energy used to produce and transport new products.
Decrease the need for landfill storage or incineration: Both are more costly and can contribute to air pollution.
