Yes, a bit. If you don't recycle, especially cans, bottles and plastic, the companies have to make new products out of the original bauxite, iron ore, silicon, or oil. This takes much more energy than recycling, and most energy use adds greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide) to the atmosphere causing global warming.
