Is recycling plastic, glass, paper and decreasing the amount of waste in general landfills an effective method to reducing waste? In this essay, the effects of plastic, glass and paper on our planet will be discussed as well as the positives and negatives of recycling. Recycling will be questioned, to see if it is the most effective method. Recycling is one of the three most effective ways to preserve our earth. Even though
planet, it is imperative that recycling, the gathering and refining of certain materials for the engenderment of new products, takes place. While this form of preserving the planet seems like the exemplary solution to the preservation of natural resources and results in less pollution, it is not taking place to the extent that it should and is not easily accessible for countries that are not as developed as others.

Waste minimization provides financial benefits in terms of reduced transportation cost, less disposal cost, minimized purchase quantity and price of raw materials, reduced purchase price of new materials when considering reuse and recycling, increased returns achieved by selling waste materials etc. Environmental benefits consist of minimized amounts of waste disposed off at landfills, which therefore extend the lifespan of landfills, reduced environmental effects as a result of disposal, e.g. noise
reduction example is reducing unwanted package material from manufactured products and produce.

Plastics are remarkably flexible materials that provide considerable benefits as simple as packaging to complex engineering material, traditional synthetic polymers (called often as plastics), such as polypropylene and polyethylene have been synthesized from non- renewable petrochemicals and are known to cause environmental concerns due to their nature of non-biodegradability [11]. Around 4% of oil and gas production of the world, a non-renewable
