GARBAGE Garbage disposal is one of the biggest problems we Filipinos face. There are so many things we waste throw away, burn or just take for granted and yet the sophisticated first world technology for waste processing is not within our reach. Recycling which is the process of transforming an item which has already served its original purpose but is still durable into something that can still be used for another purpose is one good answer to the worsening problem of garbage disposal. TYPES OF RECYCLING Internal recycling Involves the use of materials that are waste products of a manufacturing process. An example of this is the processing of spent grain mash, a waste product of distillation, into cattle feeds External recycling Is the reclaiming of materials from a product that has been worn out due to constant use. A good example of this type is the conversion of old news papers and magazines into other paper product. Advantages of Recycling 1. Decrease pollution and ease the garbage pollution 2. Conserve resources 3. Enhance creativity and resourcefulness 4. Potential in making a profitable business 5. Makes people environmentally aware 6. Promotes scientific advancements in recyclable and biodegradable materials 7. Makes governments and businesses choose programs and apply policies in consideration of preserving and respecting the environment.
