REUSE AND RECYCLING.
INTRODUCTION: The continuous
degradation of the environment has forced
specialists from various disciplines to
analyse their causes and to seek possible
solutions. The perspective taken here, the
problems of pollution and depletion of
environmental assets are economic origin.
Whether the absence of markets for
environmental goods or the lack of
definition of property rights, among other
reasons; the reality shows that every day
we reached the carrying capacity of
ecosystems causing considerable
environmental impacts that day impair
ecosystem in which we find ourselves.
REUSE AND RECYCLING: RECOVERY
OF WASTE.
Recycling is a process of recycling
materials that already fulfilled its function to
what has been or were created. The
concept of reuse suggests the ability to use
a material for their usual functions, or for
others, which admits that the object can be
used again. Basically, it's increasing the
possibilities of materials.
Recycling is part of the strategy of
treatment of waste of the three a: reduce,
actions to reduce the production of objects
susceptible of becoming waste. REUSE,
actions that allow the to use a particular
product to give a second life, with the same
application or a different one. RECYCLE, all
the operations of collection and treatment of
waste which allow reintroduce them in a life
cycle.
With the advancement of the science and
technology man is having requirements
imposed him to develop new products to
meet. Day after day we are in contact with
objects that we throw away because we
think that they are no longer useful without
may be contaminating the environment or
wasting energy.
The population has to be aware of the
environmental waste problem for selected
in origin, i.e., from every house, in addition
to awareness, is to facilitate the fact that
you can deposit each of the different types
of materials that are part of municipal waste
in the appropriate container. The density of
these containers has to be sufficiently high
so that the distance between the place of
residence where the waste was generated
and the container do not assume a brake.
And thirdly the population has to perceive
that the effort made with the selection at
origin gives positive results, both from the
environmental and economic point of view.
Recycling is beneficial for everyone, not just
environmental but economic level. Basically
these are the benefits that this provides:
generates a smaller volume of polluting
waste, which in some cases even centuries
to degrade and generating millions of tons.
Reuse involves the same advantages as
recycling but its impact will be higher or
lower depending on the amount of people
who daily make the reuse of objects..
CONCLUSIONS:
Demonstrates that there is a need to
provide greater disclosure to this subject, to
achieve a degree of awareness that will
allow us to finally obtain a larger
organization in waste to decrease the
adverse effects this problem brought to the
environment and after that getting a re-use
proper of each of the waste in order to
reduce environmental pollution.
