Why do you recycle soda can tabs?
Because they are made from aluminum, and recycling uses far less energy than producing new aluminum out of the ground. We need to save energy. Recycling is a great idea! But not just the tabs. The whole can, if it is made from aluminum, should be recycled, as well as the tabs.

Does a PS3 waste a lot of energy?
I have a ps2 and i use it for about 3 hours, for a ps3 it use the same amount of energy for about 2 hours (thats like having an old tv on for 2 hours) so i guess you should play it for about 2 hours and it will not use too much energy! The PS2 uses 8.3 volts DC and far less power than a PS3 but both connect to TV sets. The question of whether playing a PS3 is a waste of energy could be applied to the TV just as easily.
What are four ways in which recycling benefits society and the planet?
1. Financial Income - There is money in recycling. In the level of the individual, one of the benefits of recycling is financial income. There are a lot of things lying around the house that we no longer want or need that might just end up in a dumpsite somewhere, that we can recycle and earn money from. Cell phones, PDAs, ink cartridges, etc. Here at PaceButler, for instance, a phone sent in for recycling could net the owner as much as $50.There is also the financial benefit for the communities who recycle in that there will be reduced costs of waste disposal or recycling. You think recycling is expensive? Consider these recycling facts: aluminum cans are the most valuable item in your bin. Aluminum can recycling helps fund the entire curbside collection. It's the only packaging material that more than covers the cost of collection and reprocessing for itself.2. Recycling helps conserve limited resources - Throwing away a single aluminum can, versus recycling it, is like pouring out six ounces of gasoline. Last year, Americans recycled enough aluminum cans to conserve the energy equivalent of more than15 million barrels of oil.Here are some compelling recycling facts from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection:By recycling over 1 million tons of steel in 2004, Pennsylvanians saved 1.3 million tons of iron ore, 718,000 tons of coal, and 62,000 tons of limestone. Through recycling newsprint, office paper and mixed paper, we saved nearly over 8.2 million trees.3. Recycling is energy efficient - On a larger scale, recycling could translate into huge reductions in our energy costs. Consider these facts: It costs more energy to manufacture a brand new aluminum can than it does to recycle 20 aluminum cans.20 cans can be made from recycled material using the same energy it takes to make one new can.4) Recycling builds community - In almost all communities in the country today, there is a growing concern for recycling and the environment. People are working together in recycling programs, lobbies, and free recycle organizations to help promote recycling. We will be featuring these groups in our upcoming posts and link with the various networks to help you locate the nearest recycling center or free recycle group nearest your location.
