How?
•When we put things in a recycling bin, someone in a truck comes to pick it up.
•The truck takes it to a factory where machines crunch up the glass, tear up the paper, and melt down the plastic.
•Then other machines make new stuff out of the old stuff.
Lots of things that should be recycled end up in the trash.
In fact, 2/3 of the stuff that ends up in landfills could have been recycled.
Approximately 90 percent of COMPUTER contents can be reused or
recycled. But many computers get thrown away.
What if you are not sure if it can be recycled?
