RECYCLING IMPACT

Looking to save energy?  Are you concerned about climate change?  Recycle.  The impacts might surprise you.  The US EPA has a calculator (WARM) that looks at the life-cycle impacts of recycling and various Sustainable Materials Management decisions.

In 2019, MIRA’s recycling facility shipped more than 70,000 tons of sorted and processed recyclables to manufacturers.  Had we not recycled those materials, they would have otherwise been discarded as trash and the manufacturers would have had to extract and process virgin natural resources to make their products.
