Can you explain why people should recycle?
assistant
Recycling is important because it helps conserve natural resources, reduce pollution caused by the manufacturing of new materials, and reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills. It also helps sustain the environment by conserving energy and creating jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries. Recycling reduces greenhouse gases, helps to save wildlife and habitats, and ultimately helps us all to live healthier and more sustainable lives.
