En un mundo donde se apuesta al desarrollo sustentable, el reciclaje tiene gran importancia. En el programa Santiago Recicla destacan que, si una persona separa sus residuos a diario, gran parte de los materiales pueden ser recuperados y posteriormente reutilizados, reciclados o aprovechados. Si no se realiza esta actividad, estos terminarán en un relleno sanitario y no se les podrá dar una segunda vida, siguiendo el concepto de circular economy.
It is not the same garbage and waste. Waste has the potential to be recovered. Instead, garbage is any object or material that has no value to anyone.
To take into consideration, there are recyclable, compostable, special handling and non-recyclable items. Among the recyclables are papers, cardboard, newspapers and magazines; cartons for drinks; Glass; cans and metals, and plastics, such as PET, HDPE and LDPE, among many others. Compostables, for their part, consider plant debris, such as fruits, vegetables, coffee and tea leftovers or egg shells, in addition to all waste from pruning and maintenance of green areas. Those of special handling contemplate electrical or electronic waste, such as electrical appliances, lighting devices and electrical toys, among others.
