2. RECYCLING IN POLAND

3. Definition of recycling
It is one of the methods of environmental protection. Its aim is to limit the consumption of natural resources and the reduction of waste.

4. There are three types of recycling:
Reusing - repeated use of material or a product for the same purpose (e.g.retreading of tires, bottles for exchange),
Further application - use of waste for new applications after suitable physical, chemical or biological alteration (e.g. granulation of waste plastics and tires, where granular material is used as a filler in building materials),
Reutilization - chemical recycling of waste and reintroducing them to the production (e.g. use of car wrecks in steelworks).

5. Rubbish Act
The Act was passed by the Polish Parliament and became operative on the 1st January, 2012.
It establishes the rules of the management of waste, which describe the role of consumers and producers in the recycling process.
According to the law, the consumer is required to sort waste, thus he pays lower bills for rubbish disposal. However, manufacturers are obliged to convert and recycle waste. Thanks to this Act places of sale (stores, warehouses etc., have to use biodegradable and reusable bags instead of plastic packaging. Great emphasis is placed on promoting ecological packaging by means of leaflets, posters, billboards, etc.

6. Recycling in Poland
Here is what the Poles are doing to reduce the amount of waste:
We choose durable products,
We use reusable bags,
Instead of using normal batteries we use rechargeable ones,
They select glass bottles instead of paper,
They avoid products packaged in several layers of packaging,
Instead of plastic plates and cutlery for example, used during a barbecue, they choose metal and reusable cutlery,
From the waste they produce: tissues, toilet paper, cups, pots, earrings, baskets, handbags and even furniture, and clothes.

7. Rules Management of Waste in Poland:
