Even though America only makes up 5% of the world we produce 30% of the world’s garbage. In 2012 34.5% of the us discarded materials were recycled, but now out of all the materials discarded by the us only 21.4% is recycled. Many people just throw there materials away. This is a waste of materials. With all this waste there could be many things recycled, and this could save America about a million dollars each year on things that have to be made over and over again with brand new materials.
