First, glass is made from sand subjected to extreme temperatures. Sand can take thousands or even millions of years to be created, because they are parts of weathered rock. This means glass is non-renewable to create, so it is encouraged to recycle your glass because of the time it takes to create it.
Secondly, fossil fuels are used in the production of glass itself, emitting thousands of litres of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. By recycling, it cuts the amount, because recycling still does use some fossil fuel. However, compared to the amount used in the production of glass, it is minute.
