Excellent ideas about recycling


This simple bag was created by João Sabino, who had in mind the great idea of ​​using thousands of different keyboard keys that turn out to be junk or just garbage. Besides beautiful, this is to help the planet increasingly dirty and contaminated with electronic technology.



Certainly, it seems to us a revolutionary invention. Turns office paper into toilet paper. For every 40 sheets of paper to create a roll in 30 minutes, which savesconsiderable given the number of pages used by large companies and good forthe environment.
Currently it isn't for sale.




Asphalt recycling: the Madrid recycled asphalt roads are rehabilitated

The Community of Madrid has chosen some time for the recycling of asphalt roads are rehabilitated, which significantly reduces waste generation and commitment to sustainable construction.

How is recycled asphalt?

The asphalt recycling process consists of removing the old asphalt with the technique of milling, then the asphalt cutting through a large machine and finally crushing the pieces that are mixed with cement to obtain a new agglomerated with which manages the road.

Recycling of asphalt in the Community of Madrid

Today, the Community of Madrid has four machines that perform these tasks for recycling asphalt.

Also, with the recycled asphalt the Madrid also has another system which uses material from recycled tires to asphalt roads in the region.

With both initiatives if the aim is to prevent the asphalt and old tires from ending up in landfills. Therefore, given a new use and contributes to environmental conservation.

In 2009 the Community reused a million tires in the work of improving roads in Madrid.Along with this environmental policy that aims to improve waste management in the region, is also implementing the collection of waste from the roads through the separation of waste at the same time it was collected. Thus, crews cleaning ditches, originally separate plastics and packaging (yellow bag), paper (blue bag) and organic waste (orange bag), which further facilitates reuse and recycling. As a result of new policies for recycling, collected last year with this type of work 1 kg of trash per mile day.

Recycle


Much has been heard of recycling, but do we really know that it is?. Recycling is the action to re-introduce the materials and used (and not very useful for us) back into the cycle of production and raw materials.

Applying the habit of recycling in our homes and workplaces, contributing to energy saving and caring for our planet's natural resources, which are in continuousoperation.

Sometimes we have heard about recycling, but what does the recycling?

1-Reduce the need for landfills and incineration
2-Saves energy and prevents pollution caused by the extraction and processing of materials
3-Reduce emissions of greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change
4-Conserves natural resources such as timber, water and minerals
5-Helps sustain the environment for future generations.

We would like to know if you have applied the method of recycling as they have done.We would also like you think of recycling. Let's discuss.

The Earth Problems

"Anyone who wants to change the world must begin by changing yourself "  Socrates

The earth is changing and the fault is our. Today, there are 2.448 species of animals in danger, but no only are the animals the earth problem, there are so many things that produce the world's changing, for example: 


1) Polution: is harmful alteration of the natural state of half following the introduction of an agent is totally alien to that environment (pollutant), causing instability, disorder, harm or discomfort in one ecosystem, the physical environment or in a living . The contaminant can be a chemical, energy (as sound, heat or light), or genes. Sometimes the contaminant is a foreign substance, a form of energy or a natural substance.


2) Wars: is the form of socio-political conflict between two or more groups. It is perhaps one of the oldest of all international relations, but it becomes a phenomenon peculiar to the beginning of civilization. It is the confrontation of human groups organized armed in order to control natural resources or humans,or disarmament, submission and, if necessary, destruction of the enemy, and are produced by multiple causes, which usually maintain or change in power relations, economic or territorial settle disputes.


World War II (1939-1945)

3) Drugs trafficking: is a illegal global industry that consisting in the cultivation, processing, distribution and sale of illegal drugs. While certain drugs are legal sale and possession (certain drugs that contain it, snuff, alcohol, etc), in most jurisdictions the law prohibits the sale and even the offer or sale of certain drugs.The drug trade operates similarly to other underground markets.


4) Misuse of natural resources: The Earth provides resources that are exploited by humans for various purposes. Some of these are non-renewable resources such as fossil fuels, which are difficult to renew the short term.

5) Corruption: 
 is the misuse of public (governmental) power to get an unfair advantage, usually secret and private.


6) Habitat destruction: is the process by which a natural habitat is transformed into a habitat unable to support native species of the same. Plants and animals that use it are destroyed or forced to emigrate as a result there is a reduction in biodiversity. Agriculture is the main cause of habitat destruction. Other major causes include mining, logging, overfishing and urban sprawl.



Deforestation
So, what we can do for don't make in danger our planet? The answer is very easy, we need to start in ours houses and families (learning values ​​and good things), and after that, we can help people to raise awareness of the different things we are doing to our earth. "Working together we can create a country and a better home for future generations".
