WHAT IS RECYCLING? We live in a consumerist society and today's human being satisfies their needs by acquiring the products they need, be they food, clothing or any type of material object. The products we buy usually come packaged, packaged or bagged, so in addition to the product itself we take plastic, paper, cardboard and other packaging materials that are not useful and we simply discard them. Over time, products also have to be replaced, either because their shelf life has come to an end or because they have deteriorated, been damaged, or we simply don't need them anymore. With all of the above, a large amount of "garbage" is generated, waste of all kinds, which, if released into the environment, produces a real problem of contamination and negatively affects ecosystems.
