Environmentally Friendly  

Most things that make up waste in most households are recyclable items that shouldn't be taken to the rubbish dump. Before you get to the rubbish dump, ensure that you go through your waste and recycle all the plastics, metals etc., that are in your trash. Failure to recycle the plastics in your garbage can harm the environment.
