Recycling Time!!!


1.We should recycle glass because every ton of glass recycled saves the equivalent of 9 gallons of fuel oil needed to make glass from virgin materials. At least 30% of glass containers on grocery store shelves can be recycled. Container glass can be recycled repeatedly with no loss of quantity or quality.

2. I think reusing is better because you can do it your self instead of having the recycle man coming in get it at your house. For example if you have a water bottle you can drink your water and then full it back up.

3. Fayetteville residents can recycle by putting their plastic bottle, and glass bottle in the blue recycle cart.

4. The closest recycling drop off center to my house is Ann St. Landfill.

5. 9 things that plastic can be made into once it has been recycled are bottles, shower stalls, recycling bins, scouring pads, paint brushes, industrial strapping, drainpipes, plastic lumber, flowerpots, etc.

6. 5 things metals can be turned into once it has been melted down and reformed into new products such as cans, automobile parts, siding, appliances and building materials.

7. I can promote recycling by making sure that I put the recycling cart where it goes before then man comes and get it.
