13. Recycle Advantages Saves energy Reduction in costs of recollection Reduction in volume of solid waste Reduction of contamination

14. Useful life of systems of replenishment is increased Economic stimulation in sale of recyclables Reusable and non-reusable natural resources are protected Raw materials are saved since recycled materials are used in the manufacturing of new products

25. Reduce Choose products that are less bundled Reduction in use of toxic products and contaminants Shop with a reusable cloth bag Decrease the use of aluminum foil Limit use of styrofoam plates and cups Reduce use of water and energy

26. Recycling… RECYCLING CONSISTS OF RE-USING MATERIALS MULTIPLE TIMES TO MAKE NEW PRODUCTS, SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING THE UTILIZATION OF NEW MATERIALS

28. SO WHAT’S OUR COMMUNITY DOING TO HELP THE RECYCLING NEED?

29. Students in Free Enterprise SIFE NWACC’s SIFE team structurized a recycle program to help our college save money –RECYCLE at NWACC was created on March of 2007 Before our SIFE team implemented a recycle program our campus did not have a recycling program.

30. “The NWACC SIFE Recycle project exists in an attempt to reduce the waste stream NWACC produces… By comparing the savings, that SIFE is responsible for we have effectively almost cut the schools yearly waste expenditures in half….” Rob Lovejoy Project Leader

31. “NWACC spends $12,000 on waste removal each year, our SIFE has saved the college $10, 000,” says Rob

32. Emptying out the bottles has become a lot harder to keep up with. Our SIFE team’s future goal with this project is to reduce our energy consumption within our campus and to have a third party involved with emptying the recycle bottles.
