Solution

Wastes such as paper, plastic and metal objects can be disposed of through recycling. This is done in the following ways.

1) Waste paper is sent to paper mills, where it is reprocessed to make new paper once again.
2) Broken plastic articles, such as plastic bags, buckets, bowls, cups and plates, are sent to plastic-processing factories, where they are melted and remoulded to make new articles.
3) Waste metal articles are sent to metal industries, where they are melted into solid metal and recycled for various purposes.
