How to Make Your Own Recycled Paper
Recycled paper can be made from old newspaper. Recycling paper uses cellulose (plant fibers) over and over again, it uses less electricity, less water, a lot less pollution, and it saves trees from being cut down!You will need:
Make sure you have a place to work where you can make a big mess!
1.)Make a frame out of the coat hanger. You’ll need a frame for each piece of paper you make. Stretch the hanger and bend it into a rectangle/square shape. Take one leg of the panty hose and stretch it carefully over the hanger frame. Make sure it is tight and flat.
2.)Put a handful of the torn up paper and some water into the food processor or blender. Blend the mixture on high until it becomes mushy. Keep adding paper and water until you have a big gray blob. You may have to add a little more water to keep things moving smoothly. Keep the food processor on until all the paper has disappeared. Then leave it on for 2 minutes.
For some color, add a handful of brown or red onion skin (not the onion itself, just the papery outer skin).
3.)Put 2 tablespoons of white glue in the sink water and add all of the paper pulp you just made. Mix it really well. Use your hands.
4.)Scoop the frame to the bottom of the sink, then lift it slowly. (Count to 20 slowly while you are lifting.) Let the water drain out for about a minute.
5.)Hang the frames on a clothesline or put them out in the sun. Wait until they are completely dry with no dampness at all. You can then gently peel off the paper.
6.)Use the iron, set on the hottest setting, to steam out your paper. You can keep making paper until the pulp is all strained out of the sink. Mix up the sink every time you make a new piece.
Try other things like using in insect screen over a wood frame, or a strainer instead of the pantyhose and hanger. Try adding lots of food coloring, for colored paper, or try adding lint or leaves to the food processor. Your paper will have an interesting texture.
Making your own paper can be fun, and it’s a great way to re-use old paper. You can recycle all kinds of paper for re-use.

Processes of recyling includes collection and sorting.Others are cost-benefit analysis, and trades in recyclates. Collection includes “drop-off centres”, “buy-back centres” and “curbside collection”. This is the putting of all the collected materials into the designated area.Sorting is the grouping of all collected materials to meet the recycling standards. Cost benefit analysis is a finding about the benefits of a recycled material in terms of helping humans in the prevention of global warming and pollutions. The last which is the trade of recyclates is a process of trading the materials to other country. Simple recycling can be made possible even without the last two process.

As global warming invades the Earth, everything in it will be affected. First and foremost, there are critical effects on humanity.We humans, who are doing so many rude things on Earth is deserving for an actual prize.Even the animals and plants, the country’ s economic, educational, social, natural or environmental, technological and sociological development will have the global warming effect.
This video tells us that global warming is the result of human activities like consumption of fossil fuels and energy. Consequently, there came the greenhouse effect which is the result of humanity’ s greenhouse gasses’ consumption with the use of cars’ batteries and the likes.
This video also tells us that as long as industrialized nations increasingly consume energy and fossil fuels, concentration of greenhouse effect in the atmosphere will rise 2- 10 degrees Fahrenheit at the end of the century.
Health is the major target of global warming on humanity. Because of the unusual heating, people in the world will suffer sickness. Those poor nations which can’t recover easily on global warming effects… How will they cope up in this kind of national problem? They’ ll only become poorer than before. And billions of people will die. Is the Philippines one of those poor nation? Sure this will be a big commotion and will affect other countries.
Who says there’ s no effect on economic growth? Working people will not be able to work until the global warming effect didn’t seize them. Of course, the resulting economy is a “bankrupted” one because of the decrease in labor and technological capability.
Imagine…Even worst things already happening right now..The Global Warming Effects are already in connivance with each other to destruct the Earth. IMAGINE…

This video is a bit frightening. Imagine bottles in your trash can moves just for them to be recycled?! After all, this tells us that we should also recycle them…

This video advocates the recycling of plastics which spoils the landfills with their ability to live thousands of years. But recycling them and retrieving them in some grocery store with plastic recycling system would help Earth to convert a landfill into an agricultural or a productive area.

“If animals can recycle, so can WE.” This is very obvious and the targets are all the people living on Earth.
Recycling is the process of utilizing already- used materials and products to prevent too much energy consumption, rate of production, and carbon dioxide emission. RECYCLING is also one of the means of lessening the environment’s air, water, and land pollutions. If we are environmentally aware of the Earth’ s condition, we will be able to do different kinds of recyclings: from foods to cellphones. But sad to say that though it is familiar, it hasn’t been given enough awareness by humans. As for me, recycling, this day, should be implemented in all places for us to be productive and for Earth to be saved.
Recycling is just waiting for our earnest action so let’ s recycle now.
