Other examples are recycling.

The latter are devoid of the problems associated with multiple use and relativism in time, i.e. a recycling plant remains a recycling plant even if the technology of recycling changes substantially.

Paper is one of the main targets for recycling.

We all know we need to recycle more.

Even when we think or talk about recycling, lots of recyclable stuff ends up getting incinerated or in landfills and leaving many municipalities, diversion rates they leave much to be recycled.

Most of what's extracted from our end of life stuff, if it makes it to a recycler, are the metals.

And it goes in the first part of our process here, which is more like traditional recycling.

And then you would wander around and gather information, in a straightforward fashion, about the recycling process and what's being done, and how they're going to reuse the water once it comes through the plant.

None of these techniques result in any amount of recycling in any significant way.

The benefits of higher recycling rates would surely offset the associated administrative costs.

(e) Promote efficient production and processing of forest products, with a view, inter alia, to reducing waste and enhancing recycling

While incineration and landfilling are still practiced, such high recycling rates underscore the positive impact of targeted policies.

The buyer, located in Michigan, contracted to buy scrap metal from the seller's recycling operation in Ontario.

One big loser in this world will be the freight business (along with junkyards, logistics companies, and centralized recycling operations).

And all the components are there which are now in common parlance, in our vocabulary, you know, 30 odd years later wind energy, recycling, biomass, solar cells.

Recycling proponents want ultimately to build a fleet of fast neutron reactors that could consume the plutonium and other fissionable material.

Given that most of these items are not biodegradable, and are not recycled, plastics waste is building up with serious environmental consequences.

In fact, they may threaten the secondary recycling of petroleum based plastics, owing to possible contamination during sorting of mixed streams.

In the short run, this means greater efficiency and more and speedier recycling, happening locally rather than centrally.

Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or for better environmental value.

New environmental legislation has been introduced in several countries to address post consumer waste problems and to phase out hazardous substances that complicate recycling.

A mobile phone deposit system would promote recycling, reduce mining, conserve resources, and limit toxic waste.

Consider recycling, which is often just a feel good gesture with little environmental benefit and significant cost.

This is the last frontier of recycling.

Closed loop recycling, in which plastics waste is used to make another product, thus carries significant environmental benefits, such as reduced energy and oil consumption.

If you are interested in improving your own life by recycling, why not try making this shopping bag out of repurposed aluminum coffee bags, like this Finnish woman?

Some delegations highlighted the importance of taking a variety of measures at the national level, such as the building of solid waste collection centres or the adoption and promotion of recycling policies.

A given planet then moves around the epicycle at the same time the epicycle moves along the path marked by the deferent.

Well after spending about 20 years in the recycling industry, it's become pretty clear to me that we don't necessarily leave these toddler rules behind as we develop into adults.

Stronger coordination and leadership on financial transparency and resource use are required, supported by the prospect of reducing dependence on development aid and increasing revenues in resource rich developing countries.

To participate, choose one of the 5 categories related to environmental awareness such as oceans, recycling, women and climate change, fresh water, and sustainable living.

And then, if you saw, the panels actually rotate. So you can get the information on the front side, but as they rotate, you can see the actual recycling plant behind, with all the machines as they actually process the water.

The quality of these materials for recycling and reprocessing purposes is not as high as initially recycled materials, however materials such as aluminum and steel are usually excluded from this.

But the process of separating the petroleum based recyclable plastics from other kinds of plastics and solid waste is difficult, costly, and labor intensive, so only a small proportion is recycled.

Given the difficulty and expense of separating plastics, the most economically viable option is often secondary recycling of a few commodity thermoplastics mostly bottles, for which collection infrastructure is already in place.

I think that if we reduce, reuse, refuse and recycle right at the end there recycling is the last point I want to make but it's the four R's, rather than the three R's then I think we're going to be on our way.

Similarly, an open, international data portal on resource use should be established to compile core data collected by geological agencies and organizations such as the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and the International Energy Agency, as well as data on environmental pressures from resource use and coefficients for resource intensive areas of production.

After all, higher private consumption implies an end to China s surplus saving and thus to the seemingly open ended recycling of that surplus into dollar based assets such as US Treasury bills.

Several delegations expressed the view that solutions to the problem of marine debris not only needed to be implemented within the marine environment, but should also be linked to recycling, waste reduction and packaging strategies.

The waste is separated into recyclable materials (plastics, metals) and organic waste.

In effect, it internalised the cost of waste disposal into the cost of the product, theoretically meaning that the producers will improve the waste profile of their products, thus decreasing waste and increasing possibilities for reuse and recycling.

He encouraged Parties who currently deployed or planned to deploy technologies to recapture, recycle, destroy or reduce methyl bromide emissions from space fumigation applications to submit information thereon to TEAP.

And I think it starts to motivate the whole idea towards sustainability in a very positive way, and starts to teach them. They know about recycling now, but they don't really, I think, get sustainability in all the things, and the energy footprint, and how that matters.

The processing and government subsidies associated with recycling yield lower quality paper to save a resource that is not threatened.

Noting in particular that the report was inconclusive on recommendations on recapturing recycling and destruction (Section 7.6 pg 147 of the 2005 progress report) but highlighted the incentives by local environmental and occupational health and safety concerns,
