-Adds jobs to the economy.

-Slows the consuming of natural resources.

-Makes people environmentally aware.

-Promotes scientific advancements in recycable and biodegradable materials.

-Makes governments and businesses choose programs and apply policies in consideration of preserving and respecting the environment.

Disadvantages
-seperate factories must be set up for the recycling of materials, and this will just cause more pollution and energy consumption for transport, sorting, cleaning and storage.

-Twice as many trucks on the road, those collecting garbage and those collecting recycled goods.

-pollutants produced by the recycling process itself, including chemical stews when breaking down differnent products recycle a tone.

-Only the recycling of aluminium really makes any money. Reclaiming metals is feasible and fairly easy, whereas plastics and paper are expensive, wasteful and overly difficult; -Adds to taxes, and is a tax subsidy costing 8 billion a year in the USA alone; - Creation of low-quality jobs. Jobs include sifting through garbage to separate it, dealing with the toxins from the breakdown process, and other manual-intensive labor tasks; -A considerable percentage of items marked as recyclable end up trashed or burned anyway due to poor quality, contaminants, lack of resources able to handle that item in a specific region or recycling installation, etc.;
