Recycling

Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into new products. Recycling can benefit your community and the environment. Reference: https://www.epa.gov/recycle/recycling-basics

Recycling is something many of us take for granted in the sense that we assume others will do it so it doesn't really matter if we do.
