Answer 1

yes.

Answer 2

yes it is important to recycle. the more we recycle, the longer it will take for our landfills to fill up. only certain items are currently recyclable because factories are more worried about the bottom line than the planet. if they cared more about the planet & less about profits they would use a lot more planet friendly materials such as hemp. most plastics are not recyclable. there are however people who are doing their parts by creating websites such as "freecycle" which was created to keep useable items out of the landfills. far too many people are too lazy to give away their recyclables simply because it's easier to throw them in the trash than to place an ad on a website or in a newspaper & wait for someone to say WOW! thank you so-o much for this item, i will definately put it to use.

have you ever heard about the man who built an ISLAND out of plastic bottles that he found floating in the ocean? he now lives on his plastic island & floats around the world, ever expanding the size of his island.

yes! it is important to recycle for more reasons than i can count. PLEASE love your planet. PLEASE recycle!

have-a-loving-day!
