Why is it so important to recycle paper?
The recycling of paper saves trees, energy and water. According to Laura Grant, writter of the guide “Treevolution”: “Every tonne of recycled paper saves 17 trees, uses 40 percent less energy, and 50 percent less water. If all household paper and cardboard was recycled 750 000 cubic metres of landfill space would be saved a year. The energy saved from paper recycling in a year is said to be enough to provide electricity to 512 homes for a year”.
It is important that you count with a recycle bin for paper disposal at home and at work: newspapers, magazines, kraft paper, cardboad boxes etc.
However, you must take into account that among all paper waste there are some types that can not be recycled. For example, used paper towels. They may contain nastiness that ruins the whole paper recycling process. In addition, these products have already been recycled.
What kind of products are made of recycled papers?
There is a wide range of products made by recycling waste. Here we tell you some examples:
- From magazines: paperboard, newspaper, telephone directory, etc
- From cardboard: paper bags, new cardboard, paperboard, etc
