Plastic

There are over 50 different groups of plastics that are produced, and all are recyclable. Yet Americans only recycle 5% of all plastic products in the entire world. The best way to recycle plastics is to sort them by their number code.

Metal

Every day Americans use 100 million steel cans and 200 million aluminum cans, but not even half of them are recycled. Recycling metal can create new parts for cars and buildings, as well as containers for food.

Paper

Paper is the number one solid waste product in the U.S., and it takes 40% less energy to make paper from recycled paper than from fresh wood. Recycled paper also uses fewer chemicals, bleaches and dyes.

Computers

Every year 3.2 million tons of electronic waste, mostly from computers, is dumped into U.S. landfills every year. Many computer parts can be reused or recycled into new parts or scrap metal.

Tires

Americans discard about 290 million automobile tires every year, and many are being dumped into overcrowded landfills or on the side of the ride. Recycled tires can be used as fuel, for commercial flooring and for roads.
