Recycling 101

“There must be a reason why some people can afford to live well. They must have worked for it. I only feel angry when I see waste. When I see people throwing away things we could use.” -Mother Teresa (1910-1997) A Gift for God 1975

This quote by Mother Teresa demonstrates her opinion about the importance of recycling. It is an issue that has recently gained attention in our culture, however, waste continues to overflow our landfills. More recognition for this problem is needed. Recycling 101 was developed to offer information about recycling, the current recycling practices, the economic advantages of recycling, as well as how and why YOU should recycle.
