RecirclingBy Group One1What is recircling energy?Recircing energy is a energy source that is from waste material.EX:waste heat utilization; ecological agriculture; marsh gas tank Not including: fossil fuel; solar energywind energy source A kind of Renewable energy

2The advantages of recirclingDecreased air pollution and greenhouse gases from incineration Reducing hazardous waste leaching from landfills reduction in environmentally damaging mining and timber activity recycling has reduced the American carbon emissions by a net 49 million metric tonnes in 2005 And also helps the U.K. reduce CO2 emissions by 10-15 million tonnes a year. (By The United States Environmental Protection Agency)

3HoweverSeparate factories must be set up for the recycling of materials. More pollution and energy consumption for transport, sorting, cleaning and storagePollutants produced by the recycling process itselfMost recycling is not cost-efficientCreation of low-quality jobs.Even cause crime

4The history of recircling-Recycling has been a common practice for most of human history.The archaicest advocate: PlatoBronze collected & melted down for reuseDustmen in EnglandThe encourages of IndustrializationResource conservation programs established during the war were continued in some countries without an abundance of natural resources

What we have nowEcological agricultureThe core of morden ecological agriculture is the methaneCan produce a more effectively ecological cycleBut very expensiveCogeneration: A technology to produce electricity through waste heatGreat ecological benefits But few economic benefits A 4500 kw cogeneration generator need 50 million RMB.Not very widespread

Recycling for the futureRecycling is an important part of our future Average person sends 4.4 pounds of garbage to the landfill every Create a recycle bin Most clean paper, plastic, metal, and glass are recyclable. Keeping the world organized means keeping the world sustainable.
