"Our partners have the capacity to recycle 50% more than they do now, but they don't have the raw material to do so. More recycling would mean more people in a job and less waste in the landfill. It's up to us to see that people start recycling more."
José Oscar Jiménez R. managing director GERT S.A. E.S.P.
Recycling is an excellent way of saving energy and conserving the environment. Did you know that:
* 1 recycled tin can would save enough energy to power a television for
3 hours.
* 1 recycled glass bottle would save enough energy to power a computer for 25 minutes.
* 1 recycled plastic bottle would save enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for 3 hours.
* 70% less energy is required to recycle paper compared with making it from raw materials.
