Why is recycling important?
Hong Kong alone produces upwards of 5 million metric tonnes of waste every year. In a world that is constantly attempting to reduce its reliance on unsustainable energy sources, recycling reduces the amount of energy used in the production process. This is because processing recycled materials saves a significant amount of energy compared to producing new materials from raw natural resources. It is a key component of ESG process.
The environmental impact
The increasing volume and complexity of waste associated with the modern economy is posing a serious risk to ecosystems and human health. Every year, an estimated 11.2 billion tonnes of solid waste is collected worldwide and decay of the organic proportion of solid waste is contributing about 5 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Every year, an estimated 11.2 billion tons of solid waste are collected worldwide. Of all the waste streams, waste from electrical and electronic equipment containing new and complex hazardous substances presents the fastest-growing challenge in both developed and developing countries. Poor waste management - ranging from non-existing collection systems to ineffective disposal -causes air pollution, water and soil contamination. Open and unsanitary landfills contribute to contamination of drinking water and can cause infection and transmit diseases. The dispersal of debris pollutes ecosystems and dangerous substances from electronic waste or industrial garbage puts a strain on the health of urban dwellers and the environment. The solution, in the first place, is the minimisation of waste. Where waste cannot be avoided, recovery of materials and energy from waste as well as remanufacturing and recycling waste into usable products should be the second option. Recycling leads to substantial resource savings. For example, for every tonne of paper recycled, 17 trees and 100 cubic meters of water can be saved. Moreover,waste recycling can breathe new life into waste, reduce the load on landfills and create employment opportunities.
