If you’re interested in how you can preserve the natural resources that are in the environment, as well as how money can be saved and used wisely in the process, chances are you’ll benefit from a class in environmental economics.

Why Is Recycling So Important?

I suddenly realised that if I recycle 1 ton of plastic, it means that 2 people can live ‘free of carbon cost’ for one whole year i.e. I can save on a couple’s annual energy usage and carbon footprint.

Incidentally, that’s almost 2000 pounds of oil saved.

And the next time you open the garbage bin to toss away something, take a hard look at it – more than half of what you throw away can be recycled or re-used. This includes packaging – simple wrapping paper, covers, lids, etc.
