Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new products, preventing valuable resources from ending up in landfills and reducing the need for raw material extraction. By collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away, recycling helps conserve energy, decrease pollution, and protect natural ecosystems. Common recyclable materials include paper, cardboard, plastic, glass, and metals like aluminum and steel. Each of these materials goes through a unique recycling process, where they are cleaned, sorted, and reprocessed into new products, reducing environmental impact and promoting a circular economy.
