Passage1
Governments must take an active part in encouraging people to preserve the environment. One of the best ways everyone can become involved is through recycling.
Recycling is a safe, less costly solution to the problem of waste disposal. It reduces the amount of solid waste taken to landfills and thereby decreases the amount of water and air pollution.
One of the most important reasons for recycling is to preserve natural resources. Recycled materials can be substituted for natural materials ones that come directly from the earth) and would reduce such problems as deforestation.
Production of natural materials also uses more fossil fuels and other resources that could be saved by recycling.
Contrary to popular b elief, recycling also saves governments and citizens money. For example, businesses and individuals can reduce their waste disposal costs by more than 70 percent by using a recycling program. Also, individuals or communities receive money from selling recyclables to recycling companies. So businesses are not only saving money, they are earning money as well.
Furthermore, production using recycled materials is usually cheaper for a company and reduces the cost of pollution control. In addition, the recycling industry provides employment for hundreds for thousands of people.
In spite of all these benefits, however, recycling is quite limited. A greater effort must be put forth to promote recycling. Governments must become environmentally responsible and act quickly to set recycling goals and implement a recycling program.
