There are different kinds of recycling
Repeatedly reusing limited natural resources to reduce garbage is called recycling, but it is more accurate to call it “reuse” or “recycling” depending on how it is done. So, how are they different?
An example of “reuse” is washing a beer bottle or milk bottle after you have finished drinking from it and using the same bottle again. Depending on the type of bottle, it’s possible to reuse it many times in this way. Another important kind of reuse is repairing and then reusing broken furniture and home appliances. In contrast, “recycling” is when we take cans or discarded paper and use them as a resource for remaking them into something new. PET bottles that once contained juices or other drinks are made into clothes, and there are many other cases where things are recycled into something completely different than the original.
