I know I should recycle things, but why? The
refuse collectors collect our rubbish every
week. So what’s the problem? ben15
Of course we can’t recycle everything, but we
throw away far too many things. Each year
the average British family throws away about
100 kg of glass, 40 kg of plastic and 260 kg of
paper (that’s about five trees). That’s an awful
lot of rubbish! And believe it or not, we throw
away about one third of all the food we buy (so
we waste a lot of money, too).
Not enough people recycle and too much
rubbish goes to landfill sites (enormous holes
in the ground). As everything lies there year
after year, it poisons the land. It also creates
methane (a greenhouse gas that increases
global warming). These days, there isn’t
enough space for all the landfill sites we need –
we have to send some of our rubbish overseas!

It doesn’t matter if I recycle or not. One
