Some people think that, in order to increase the amount of waste products that are recycled, governments should introduce laws making recycling a compulsory act. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

recycling as well as people’s participation in it is an issue open to debate. Several individuals insist that the government should enforce laws making recycling mandatory. I am biased to the fact that

To begin

otherwise

, they would face punishments, namely being fined, sued, pleaded guilty in front of the jury, or more severely, sent to prison. A more observable benefit of

this

method is that it saves the planet’s natural resources. Every year, the manufacturing process of new products contributes to the exploitation of resources, while reusable materials go to

. By enacting the aforementioned

law

, the government as well as manufacturers could make use of old materials while conserving fresh, raw ones for future use to ensure sensible, sustainable utilization.

Finally

, it goes without saying that

this

law

would play an important role in protecting the environment and ecology. It ensures that reusable

waste

is salvaged, which prominently reduces the amount of industrial

waste

– a key source of pollution.

need to be taken into consideration. Central to my stance is that recycling, especially on a regular basis, may result in financial issues. Recycling factories require more advanced machinery, equipments and technology,

thus

they are 2.5 times more expensive than regular factories.

This

may infer that governments will face great expenditures; which may present low and middle income countries with a serious problem.

Besides

, a closer investigation into security indicates that recycling may not be safe in the long term.

In the final analysis, products made from repurposed materials do not reach the quality standard of new products made from fresh materials. If recycling is made compulsory, recycled products will be more common,
