- One plastic bottle that is recycled saves as much as energy needed to power one 60 watt bulb for
about six hours. - Recycling waste plastic is good for environment as it uses only half of the energy required to make
virgin plastic. Reformation of plastic waste is more resourceful than creating new plastic as it also
saves fuel in processing and in turn reduces waste discharge. - A plastic milk jug approximately takes a million years to decompose and at the same time a plastic
cup takes around 80 years to decompose completely. Plastic bags that are thrown into the Ocean
and other water bodies kill many creatures living in the sea every year together with plastic
garbage.
