The average person in the UK uses nearly 40 kilos
of newspaper each year which also badly affects
the environment. Since it takes 24 trees to produce
one tonne of paper, it means that every regular buyer
of a newspaper uses one tree each year just for this
purpose. This is really devastating for our forests but
this situation could be changed if we took recycling
paper more seriously. 4 Therefore, doing this
is really worth the effort.
What’s more, people in the UK throw away more than
£35 million worth of aluminium each year. So perhaps
it would be beneficial for them to reconsider how
they do their everyday shopping. For example,
recycling aluminium packaging could save millions
of pounds as just one recycled can saves enough
energy to power a television for three hours!
Finally, the average UK family uses 500 glass bottles
a year. In landfill, glass never decomposes but it can
be recycled several times, saving both money
and the environment. 5 However, if you throw
a glass bottle away in a landfill site, it can take up
to one million years to decompose. Thus, the message 10
