A scrap It's that one residue, waste, which is normally thrown away because we have excess or no longer serve us.
Type of waste that is plausible to be reused thanks to the recycling process that returns it to its classic utility or attributes a new one
Meanwhile, the term of reusable indicates that something can be used again, employed.
Then the waste Reusable are those waste that despite having been discarded by someone because they were not useful more or for any other reason, they can be used again, giving them a new reason for being or utility.
Thanks to recycling, as the process through which it is possible to recover discarded materials is called, in fact we can reuse them to make other products or the same one and thus continue using it.
Materials like glass, plastic, metal, cardboard and paper they are plausible to be recycled.
Most of the waste that is produced in homes, offices, can be used again, because if you open one of the bags in which it is agglutinated and strip we will find that the remains of food, cardboard, paper, glass and plastic containers, among others, are abundant, all of them as we have already said reusable.
Meanwhile, if they are properly separated, they can be used again and give way to new products or, failing that, attribute them a new utility that they did not have before.
The idea is to extend the life of the products, for example by restoring them, giving them a new use or directly turning them into a new product.
Most of the things that we usually throw away still have a useful life and if there is no useful life for us, for someone else in need, they can.
Of course, those things that are not highly deteriorated are the ones with the greatest chance of being intervened and re-adapted.
The ideal scenario is that those of us who produce waste take conscience about it and separate the waste before we dispose of it.
Although waste plants perform this task, it is essential that the community be made aware of population in general to simplify the steps and extend the custom.
Recycling is caring for the environment
Fortunately, in recent decades, people are becoming more and more familiar with concepts such as recycling and caring for environment, which go hand in hand of course, it is impossible think one without the other.
Recycling is the procedure par excellence through which waste materials, which are plausible to be reused, are still re-introduced into a production process and consumption and some kind of utility is returned to it as we have already pointed out.
It is estimated that around 90% of waste can be recycled and in this way we will not only be eliminating waste from the planet, which today is a tremendous global problem, but we will also contribute positively to reduce the contamination environmental.
Recycling paper has a direct consequence in stopping the indiscriminate felling of trees, which are precisely cut down in order to make more and more paper.
On the other hand, recycling glass is a great contribution to saving Energy.
For example, you have to make aware to the world population in this sense, to teach them the materials that are capable of being reused for a very important purpose, such as those mentioned for paper and glass.
Recycling and the fight against environmental pollution are two issues that go hand in hand and that require education to reach a successful conclusion.
The utility of recycling as we can see is enormous, but of course, not everyone knows it and that is why We emphasize the importance of telling it, of teaching those who do not know the benefits of recycling waste reusable.
A first step is to teach the citizen to classify waste to make recycling faster and easier; For this purpose, bags of different colors are used, each one intended for a particular type of material, which clearly cannot be mixed with that of another color.
In Europe, progress is being made in this regard, however, in Latin America, for example, there is still a long way to go to achieve progress.
