Keeping the environment clean and with minimum pollution is the key agenda in every industry today. There are items that need recycling especially plastics and metals . We usually have some information down on a wrapping requesting for it to be recycled but here in my country most of the time plastic wrappings like this one in the picture is not taken back for recycling. This a bread wrapping after use it's discarded irresponsibly. You will find it anywhere. Are you responsible when it comes to recycling? And how do you do it?

We have special recycling trash bins here that we put at the curb and it's picked up once a week. It's for certain plastics, cardboard and glass.

No recycling for me. I would have to pay for the service, so if I can reuse something myself I will do it, otherwise trash it is.

Not all the bread wrappers here are recyclable unfortunately but I am seeing more companies starting to make their bags recyclable then before so I am very happy about that. I always have a bag full of bags to return to the store when I go shopping.

For the moment I was recycling plastic bottles and everthing else that's not biodegredable.

I am a big proponent of recycling. I try to recycle or reuse everything I can. We have special recycle bins that we can put out on the curb in front of our houses and a truck comes once a week to pick up all the recyclables and take them to a special facility where they sort through all the materials.

That's the problem now but so many images and icons have been out on recyclable items maybe some people do not take the time to look at such

There are plenty of opportunities for us to place our rubbish in bins and/or recycling bins. Most houses now have two bins supplied by their local councils - one is for food waste and general rubbish, the other is for recyclables.

Here we have few households with access to such bins . It's a good way of taking care of household refuse

Yes they can be recycled and used for various purposes. I saw a certain youth group that painted the egg trays so colorfully and covered the ceiling board with them . It was so beautiful you would never thought it was egg trays used

Am happy if we could do that our environment could be free of recyclable materials that are thrown carelessly
