The UK Government has set the objective of recycling 65% of everyday rubbish by 2035, in a bid to fulfil its Resource and Waste Strategy. Therefore, it is critical that we do our bit to help achieve this goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is Recycle Awareness Week so important? \ud83e\udd14<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Annually, the UK is responsible for producing up to 215 million tonnes of waste. 46% of this waste is recycled, a significant improvement compared to the past couple of decades. Recycling waste correctly still needs improvement though, as currently, 22% of our waste ends up in landfills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of Recycling \ud83d\udc4d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reduce pollution and emissions \ud83c\udfed:<\/strong> Landfill sites in the UK contribute 27% of the total methane emissions we produce. The ability to reuse recycling as new items reduces both water and air pollution, minimising overall carbon emissions. Plus, the number of landfill sites across the UK will decline, as there will be less waste to transport there.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Protect natural resources \ud83c\udf32:<\/strong> A significant benefit of recycling is that waste can be transformed into a new and usable item. This ranges from glass bottles to safety matting, including our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.direct2u.co.uk\/matting\/anti-fatigue-matting\/ramp-mat-0-8m-x-1-2m\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ramp Mat<\/a>, which is made from 70% recycled material! This can reduce deforestation rates and preserve natural resources for future generations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Energy Saving \ud83d\udca1:<\/strong> Making new items from unwanted waste is also uses significantly less energy. Removing the need to gather new materials to make an item from scratch means we can save more energy!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Supporting the economy \ud83d\udcb0:<\/strong> Recycling is not only good for the planet, but also for our overall economy! With an increase in recycling habits, employment has increased for sorters and manufacturers. Plus, financial savings can be easily achieved, as landfills charge expensive tax and transport costs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can we improve our recycling habits? \ud83d\udc9a<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Direct2U, we want to help reduce the effects of climate change, and encourage better recycling habits both in the workplace and at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recycling Bins \ud83d\udeae<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Installing recycling bins around your workplace can subconsciously encourage employees to recycle their waste throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Our range of recycling bin kits, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.direct2u.co.uk\/wheelie-bins\/recycling-bins\/recycling-bin-kits\/recycling-bin-kit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Open Top Recycling Bin Kit<\/a>, is ideal for this!
