HOW GLASS CAN BE RECYCLED

Glass bottles can be recycled. Once they’re cleaned, they can either be repurposed (used for a different purpose such as for homemade jams and pickles) or they can be broken up and used in the production of more glass. By helping to lower the energy needed to melt silica sand, this form of recycling also plays its part in reducing global warming and the effects of climate change.

Producing glass from recycled glass reduces air pollution by as much as 20% and water pollution by a whopping 50%!
