So we don't run out of resources. Earth has limited resources. What is wrong with these people? If you don't recycle, it doesn't make the earth unbreathable.. Not recycling doesn't mean pollution.

Answer 5

There are SO many benefits! Let's start off with paper recycling: Trees absorb carbon dioxide and let off oxygen. We breathe oxygen to live, the more trees we kill the less oxygen there is, the thinner the air, the more lung disease and eventually no trees = no oxygen = no people. What about plastic, it never disinigrates... if we don't recycle it we will be living on mounds and mounds of toxic garbage. If we burn it pollutants go into the air contriuting to the ozone layer... I could go on forever, IF WE DON'T RECYCLE WE WILL BE EXTINCT...
