Natural resources are getting extinct and consumerism is at its increase that’s the main reason why recycling is of paramount significance. In layman terms, it is a process of extracting new products from waste, and if this process is not performed well, soon we will be sitting on the heap of garbage, this is why benefits of recycling cannot be denied. Recycling as a process has numerous advantages; it helps conserve natural resources like air and water, saves energy and most importantly prevents our environment from pollution.

The prime reason of recycling is to reduce the garbage and trash sent to landfills, which help it curb air pollution to some extent. The assortments of chemicals thrown into the landfills causes’ air pollution while poisonous gases emitted from the garbage polluting the environment give rise to various diseases. Recycling not only prevents this but also conserve and sustain the atmospheric balance.

With rise in rate of population, natural resources are depleting every day and among these depleting natural resources it was water that required immediate attention. This is why water recycling gained such a mouthful attention. Waste water from industries and domestic sources as well as rain water is sent to water treatment plants can be utilized again. This process of recycling water can prevent scarcity of water for our future generation.

Recycling of products is cost beneficial also. Manufacturing of product from trash does not require raw material and it consumes less time and reduces cost of product also, while serving the same purpose. Production of brand new artifacts if not manufactured using reused materials apart from being expensive can also result in depletion of natural resources. This is why when we look at future, the need for this process looks even more vital.

Benefits of recycling are environmental as well as economical; many recycling units had set up in last few years that offer elegant solution to rising environmental problems. Not only these units have benefited the economy in terms of money generated, but had also opened new avenues of employment. Municipal budget can save millions of dollars through recycling as cities have to pay millions of dollars for the landfill usage. As we leap into future, we understand how imperative it is to keep this process going. This process not only gives us the solution but gives them in a cost effective way.
