The Basics of Recycling

Are you thinking about beginning a company-wide program for recycling in Atlanta? If so, then you are on your way toward reducing waste and promoting a greener workplace. During this type of transition, it’s common for people to wonder about how materials are recycled. Watch this video to learn the basics of recycling.

The recycling process involves collecting waste products and then breaking them down into materials that can be used to create new products.
