The possibilities are endless!

The transformation that takes place when you recycle is quite amazing. For example

Can Car

  • In just seven days, your paper could come back as another newspaper
  • In just six weeks your metal can could be recycled and used as part of a fridge, a car, a plane.. or simply another metal can!
  • Your glass bottles could be recycled into house insulation,
  • And plastic bottles could be made into a cosy fleece jacket!
  • The UK produces more than 434 million tonnes of waste every year. This rate of rubbish generation would fill the Albert Hall in less than 2 hours. (Source:Waste Online)

Most gets dumped in landfill sites - but a lot could be recycled.

And when the possibilities really are endless why throw it all away?!
