Recycling is one of the most convenient and easiest way in which an individual could be of certain help in accomplishing a more green and prosperous planet. When we recycle, used materials can be suitably converted into new products thus decreasing the need to utilize the new resources which is very environmental friendly and if not, new products is persistently extracted using various harmful techniques causing a major threat to the environment.
I personally believe in the notion of recycling and its benefits, but till date haven’t contributed to the cause. Diverting to UAE business, I feel they are dynamically participating in creating a better environment to live in thus transforming the myths in mind of people to a distinct reality.
When asked to Kathreen Julina, who worked as an intern with Tejari FZ LLC says; “we had this paper shredding machine which was especially meant for confidential papers, that were shredded once a paper was passed through after which it was all together sent for recycling”.
Schneider Electric, a French multinational company working towards creating energy saving products also follows a parallel method of recycling, the company also having a machine which stack papers after which it is also send for recycling.
Asit Parind, Product Manager at Grundfos says; “our company deals with pumps, so our recycling does start from there itself, where we recycle old, used pumps as well as spare parts and damaged components.”
Recycling is a very important term used today in waste management, and how can one forget the 3R’s which is Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
Restaurants across UAE nowadays have gone a step further with recycling material such as the disposable cups, spoons as well as plates. Raj Thakur, Director of Hospitality at Al Amry Group,managing Hotels and Restaurants believes in having recycle bins to recycle soft drink cans. “I am putting forward my best, and hope I get a positive feedback.”
RTA( Road and Transport Authority) initiated recycling campaigns also taking a stance to stop unnecessary wastage. At every RTA station there are three separate bins, one being for bottles and cans, second one for paper and the third one for plastics. This action hopes to bring about regulation among the population of UAE.
So to my opinion and looking at the increasing participation of individuals and groups recycling has transformed from a myth to reality, and the vision of a triumph over pollution and other non-degradable materials is not far fetched.
