Answer:

Glass

Standard Glass: Bottles, Jars, And More

Glass is completely recyclable and saves precious energy resources. Making products from recycled glass uses less energy than starting from scratch. Recycled glass is made into new beverage bottles, food jars, insulation and other construction materials.glass-bottles-jars.jpg

The downside with glass is that often times it is heavy and difficult to transport—often times, bottles have to travel further to manufacturing plants for reuse (depleting large amounts of energy).

Usually, clear glass containers are recycled into new clear glass products, while colored glass containers are recycled into new colored glass products. For this reason, some recycling programs may ask you to separate glass containers by color. Many curbside recycling programs will collect clear and colored glass containers and separate them for you, also known as single-stream recycling.

Labels do not need to be removed. Some recycling programs will ask that lids and metal rings around the necks of containers be removed. DO NOT include window glass, ceramics, light bulbs or ovenware because these items can damage a glass manufacturer’s furnace.recycle-light-bulb.jpg

How To Handle Lightbulbs

You CANNOT recycle light bulbs (not CFLs), ceramics, Pyrex, kitchen glassware like glasses and plates, or white skin cream jars. These types of glass have different melting temperatures than regular glass and form solid inclusions in the final product.

CFLs, compact fluorescent lights, give off the same amount of visible light as an incandescent bulb, but they use less power and have a longer rated life. Although CFLs have many environmental benefits, they do contain a small amount of mercury, and so need to be disposed of properly. So what can you do? Take them to your community’s hazardous waste collection site—that information can be found through calling your town hall or looking up waste management or public works departments online.

Metal

Did you know that Americans use over 100 million steel cans and over 200 million aluminum beverage cans every day? That’s enough to rebuild the entire U.S. commercial airliner fleet every three months! Almost all aluminium and steel products can be recycled over again without compromising its content. Here are some of the main recyclable products:

Benefits Of Recycling Aluminium And Steel

You can go to scrap metal recycling facilities and get paid for what you bring

Reduces greenhouse gas emissions

Aluminium and steel can be recycled over and over again

Decreases environmental damage caused by mining

Less land and water pollution

Paper

Things You Should Know When Recycling Paper:

You don’t have to remove staples, plastic windows, spirals from notebooks. These get strained out when the paper is turned to pulp.

Any dirty or greasy paper, including napkins, cannot be recycled!

Waxed, composite, or laminated paper is generally not allowed (but check with your local recycle): this includes milk cartons, fast food wraps, and drink boxes.

Thermal paper, such as fax paper, cannot be recycled.

Flatten your boxes before recycling them!
