Description: We must try to avoid wastage of natural resources by developing the habit of recycling and reusing things. Most of the things that we use in our day to day life can be recycled. This way, we can cut down on pollution and save our environment. Paper is made by cutting trees. If we recycle paper and reuse it, we can save on cutting trees. Plastic does not disintegrate easily but used plastic can be recycled to make other products. Similarly, steel, aluminium and glass can all be recycled. Extraction of aluminium is a costly process. If aluminium products are recycled we can cut down on the cost and prevent unnecessary extraction. Glass pieces can be remelted to make new objects. There is a lot of wastage in developed nations but in India, we are in the habit of recycling our waste. However, in the 21st century Indians are also getting into wasteful habits.
