RECYCLING

Recycling is restoring some raw materials - such as plastics, scrap metal, glass and paper - processing them and repeated using. Thanks to the recycling we protec the natural environment, reduce the quantity of waste and limit consuming of new raw materials. Recycling has been known for almost 2000 years.

collection of paper, green – for the glassware and yellow - plastic intended for collecting.

PAPER

TREES ARE ALIVE!

1 TON OF THE WASTE PAPER

17 TREES

Reusing of 1 ton of spare paper allows to :

• 1476 litres of oil,• 26.5 thousand litres of water,• 7 m3 of the place on the stockpile• 4.2 thousand kWh of the energy (that is

so much, that we can warm the average flat for half a year).

• power consumption reduced by 75%,• air pollution - by 74%,• amount of slurry reduced by 35%!

PLASTIC

•bottles after drinks (best crushed)

•bottles after liquids for washing

•plastic screw caps•plastic bags, sacks, advertising leaflets

containers around aerosols, foils and the

like)

AIMS OF RECYCLING Preservation of natural resourcesPreservation of natural resources - using the recyclable waste will reduce using primaeval raw materials and the

deficiency of supplies of the natural resource.Environmental protectionEnvironmental protection - extracting raw materials and processing them into consumer goods are associated

with the burden and the decay of the environment; preservation of natural resources is an environmental

protection.Energy savingEnergy saving - the recyclable waste is means of

conveying the energy. When we exploit it, it leads to protection of the energy as long as the circulation of the energy for recovering is smaller than the energy, which is necessary to get. This way the energy conservation is

also environment protection.
