How does recycling help endangered species?

Question

does recycling help in any way, those species that are in danger of being extinct?

and how?

thanks for your answers.

Answer 1

If people recycled things more and actually threw away their trash, then all the filth wouldn't end up in the wild where animals could hurt and/or kill themselves on the garbage.

VIVA LA RAZA!

Answer 2

Recycling paper leads to a reduced amount of trees being cut down and trees are many animals' habitat, including endangered animals.

Answer 3

well i think it helps animals all together, when you recycle you help trees from being cut down and that saves some animals homes. so i guess it does help endarged species

Answer 4

well, it does indirectly....example: if everyone recyled plastic, there would be less need to make it (making it causes harmful bi-products that enter the air and detroy the ozone...airborne poison kind of). Less production of plastic=less harmful bi-products=better environment for everyone (including endagered species)....and if we recycled paper more, there would be less need to cut down trees to make more paper...(destruction of forrests is the #1 reason why animals become endangered in the first place, i think)

Answer 5

Perhaps the biggest problem involves aluminium (bauxite, not sure if thats spelled right) mining in the rain forest.  If there is less demand for bauxite  then less rain forest will be cut down for strip mining.  The largest deposits of bauxite are in the amazon.  

Deforestation in that region kills off untold new species every day.

Answer 6

yes it does cause the endangered species are use to pure atmosphere not to this polluted one so they find it difficult to adapt, recycling helps to reduce the pollutant that would affect their well been or survival

Answer 7

we don't have to keep destroying there habitat to produce something we can recycle
