Human activity leaves a negative imprint on the state of the environment. Garbage is a big problem for the entire modern world. In the struggle for environmental friendliness, waste processing is the main focus. Correct organization of waste collection and recycling makes it possible to recycle materials. The method of disposal is also determined depending on the type of waste.
Instructions
Step 1
Take your waste paper to a designated collection point. Unlike large enterprises that accept waste paper, such points do not impose certain requirements on the minimum volume of paper waste. Often, waste paper collection points are created by environmental protection organizations. If you do not have time to search for such organizations, you can lower the waste paper you have accumulated in special containers that are placed on the streets of the city.
Step 2
In the cities, there are specialized points for the reception of metal waste. It is not difficult to find them: advertisements for accepting scrap metal are often found on city streets and on the Internet. You can deliver scrap metal to the point yourself or agree to export it with an organization.
Step 3
Take the accumulated glass waste to a glass container collection point. Of course, you will receive very little income for this type of waste. But you will save the environment from the next portion of glass, which does not decompose for a thousand years. Broken glass in large volumes is handed over to factories specializing in glass processing. Here, for example, building mixtures are made from such waste.
Step 4
Take plastic waste to a recycling center. It should be noted that there are not so many organizations dealing with this type of waste, even in large cities. Therefore, finding them will not be entirely easy. In comparison, if you return plastic bottles, you will receive much less revenue than glass ones. But do not forget that plastic is very harmful to the environment, unlike neutral glass. There are no mechanisms in nature to break down plastics. Therefore, by deciding on the correct disposal of plastic products, you are showing concern for the environment.
Step 5
Sometimes human waste is a great threat to the environment. By simply throwing them in the trash, you are committing a kind of environmental crime. For example, finger-type batteries. There are no special containers for this kind of waste in Russia yet. But some large home appliance stores have installed collection containers at their sites.
