Recycling Have you ever used an old bag or box? If so, you have recycled. One way to recycle is to reuse old things in new ways. For example, you can make a desk organizer out of an egg carton, use the Sunday comics to wrap a present, or jot notes on the back of an old envelope. Many cities recycle. Residents put the trash that can be recycled into special bins. Glass, plastic, newspaper, some metals, and sometimes foam are among the materials that are recycled. The bins are put out with the trash. Next, they are picked up by sanitation workers. Then, they are sorted and taken to processing plants and factories to make new products. Therefore, recycling means less garbage. What becomes of our recycled objects? Many new products are made from old ones. For example, old foam is shredded and pressed together into a jumble of many-colored foam. The new foam is stuffed into pillows or used as carpet padding. Old paper turns up on store shelves as paper towels, cardboard, pet beds, and even as copier paper. Glass bottles and jars may be crushed into tiny pieces and used to pave roads. Or, they may be ground up into sand-size particles that are used on golf courses. Recycled plastic has many uses. It is used to make toys, pens, pencils, fences, flowerpots, and outdoor furniture. Some kinds of plastic are even used to make soft, warm clothes! It is important to recycle. It helps us to have less garbage. It also keeps us from wasting the Earth's trees and metals. When we recycle, we are being smart
and taking care of the Earth, ourselves, and our future
