not just today but every day. We've noticed that Our Mother Earth is currently
dealing with several environmental issues, including air and water pollution, climate
change, global warming, and etc. It is extremely concerning for us because it has the
potential to create a variety of major health issues. According to the EPA, Paper
makes up about 28 percent of solid trash in landfills and one ton of paper takes
up about 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space. Making new goods out of recycled
materials uses less energy than mining and processing new resources.

among the youth. Recycling of waste paper has several benefits, both for
humans and the earth (Bajpai, 2006; Putz, 2006; Sappi, 2011). Recycling paper
reduces the volume of waste while helping to boost the local economy through the
collection and sorting of waste paper. ( Jain&Webb, 2012) Teaching their children
about the benefits of recycling paper can help them promote a clean environment
and a healthy lifestyle Parents or teachers even teenagers can teach the people

This chapter is the Review of the Related Literature that discusses various related
literatures, studies, and articles about the importance of recycling paper to create
usable items
According to (Sukalich,2016), in 2011, the United States recycled 66.8% of their paper
consumption. More paper is recovered for recycling than plastic, aluminum, and glass
combined, and every ton of paper recycled saves more than 3.3 cubic yards of landfill
paper, we're used to recycling it. Furthermore, in 2011, 76 percent of paper mills
included some recovered material, suggesting that the paper you throw away is making
its way into a variety of new goods. The process of transforming old paper into new
paper may seem to be complex, but it is actually quite simple. Paper recycling, on the
other side, allows people to save both energy and materials on a large scale. According
to the EPA, recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees, 7,000 gallons of water, and 463
gallons of oil. After five to seven recycling processes, the fibers become too short to
produce new paper and must be mixed with fresh fibers. From the American Forest &
Paper Association, each man, woman, and child in the United States recovered an
average of 338 pounds of paper for recycling in 2011. (AF&PA). You can help maintain
this number high by learning how the process of recycling paper works and what you
can do to ensure recycled paper does not wind up in a landfill. There are five
fundamental paper quality classifications. You may stumble across these terms from
time to time, and it's possible that you'll need to understand the distinction.
According to the inConfidence in this article, paper is everywhere in our environment,
and it comes in a variety of sizes, shapes, and textures. As a result, there's little doubt
that paper makes up the majority of the garbage collected each day. As a result, a
strategy for resolving the garbage problem caused by the large volume of waste papers
in the waste was developed. After that, it was recommended that the waste paper be
recycled. Because paper takes up 35% of all trash, waste paper recycling is significant.
Afterwards, a paper recycling station was set up. The waste paper recycling procedure
takes place in the paper recycling station. The wasted paper is recycled and then used
to make fresh paper and other paper products in this facility. Paper recycling is
important because it can help reduce the quantities of waste or garbage collected each
day.
According to the National Cleantech Conference & Exhibition (April 3, 2019), Though
the objective of recycling was originally to reduce the need to remove new resources
from the environment regularly, it now provides much more. Recycling is now widely
used to maintain the environment clean for humans and wildlife by minimizing garbage
sent to landfills, conserving energy, and reducing the environmental effect of new
product development by using existing resources that may be reused and repurposed.
And on the recycling and sustainability, they stated that as new technologies are
discovered to help recycle nearly everything, including metal, plastic, and water,
recycle garbage helps towns, communities, and countries identify themselves. A city
with a well-designed and efficient recycling system is seen more favorably than one that
pollutes the environment. As the concept and necessity of recycling become more
Recycling wood materials, for example, eliminates the need to cut down additional
trees. It also aids in the preservation of watersheds, biodiversity, and soil stability. When
when plastic and metallic materials are recycled, land that would otherwise have been
used and contaminated by their landfill can be used for other more sustainable
purposes. Recycling aluminum cans, for example, is critical to preserving the rainforests
that are frequently removed from mining bauxite. It also aids in the reduction of
environmental consequences. On the other hand, there are technologies that can
reduce negative environmental effects while also having a good economic benefit. One
of these processes is recycling, which is more than just the disposal of waste. The
as a reduced environmental impact. From the first point of view, natural resources are
conserved at the input side of the manufacturing process; from the second point of view,
the amount of dangerous chemicals seeping into the environment is reduced at the
In 2005, Europe produced 99.3 million tonnes of paper, resulting in 11 million tonnes of
waste, which is around 11% of total paper production. During the same time frame, 47.3
million tonnes of recycled paper were produced, resulting in 7.7 million tonnes of solid
waste (about 70% of total generated waste in the papermaking industry), contributing
for 16% of total production from this raw material (CEPI 2006). Paper made from
recycled fibers uses less energy and conserves natural resources such as trees. wood
and minimizes pollution in the environment In recent research programs for waste
planning, this has also resulted in a set of new waste management targets. To capture
the inter-relationships among the paper recycling network system, Pati et al. (2008)
proposed a mixed integer goal programming (MIGP) model. The use of this method can
benefit the environment indirectly while also improving the quality of waste paper that
Art and recycling goes hand-in-hand. Eco-artists are, nowadays, transforming old,

In recent years, many artists in the Middle East has started expressing their support for

research to be successful.
As shown in the flowchart, the recycling process begins with identifying potential
materials and conducting a test to see if they will become durable with or
without the addition of glue and flour to the mix. As a result of the experiment,
the recycled object without glue or flour is readily damaged, whereas the thing
with glue and flour remains intact. Water, glue, or flour (depending on what was
available) were mixed with the used paper. All of it was combined together until
it formed a paste, which was then shaped into the desired object. It takes 2-4
days to complete the manufacture. Also, the sunlight creates a vital role in
completing this research. The item was then put through a series of tests, like
throwing it and so on, to determine its durability. The items by recycling paper
was built to reduce the waste, decrease waste and prevent major health

The study indicate that recycling paper and turning it into crafts has a significant
environmental impact while also enhancing our creative minds. Furthermore, the
Reusing materials for new purposes can save a considerable amount of money.
With an average family in the western world producing a ton of waste each year,
recycling is one activity where just one family (or one person) can make a genuine
difference. (Lober, D., 2018). Recycling paper saves landfill space and reduces the

Paper recycling lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and recovered fiber is a cost-
Recycling paper uses 70% less energy and water than growing new trees and
Best of all, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, recycling one ton
of paper saves 17 trees and more than 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space.
3. How beneficial are these home-made crafts made from recycled paper?
In this instance, you won't need to buy organizers for your belongings if you
make your own crafts out of recycled paper at home. It not only saves money,
but it also helps the environment by lowering the amount of paper that ends up in
our landfills. According to the EPA, recycling paper causes 35 percent less water
pollution and 74 percent less air pollution than making paper from raw materials.
