COLLECTING and PROCESSING materials are two parts of recycling. BUYING recycled products and materials is the third
part, which closes the recycling loop.
When Buying Recycled, it is important to look
for the arrows...
Almost all products are "recyclable", but not all are actually "recycled". Recycled is more important than recyclable
because it means the product is made with material that has been sorted
and manufactured in the recycling process. The recycled products are
conveniently priced for consumer needs and are normally offered for cheap
prices in the market.
It is also important to buy "post-consumer" recycled products because they are made
with materials recycled by the public. Your purchases of post-consumer
recycled products will ensure that collection, transportation, and
recycling technologies get developed.
