As the world is playing more and more attention to the environment，recycling has become very important. With the passing of time，recycling is changing around the globe. What will recycling look like in 10 years?
The increase in the reuse of existing materials，including recycled plastics，glass，paper and more，will reduce(减少)the demand for raw materials. You'll find more clothing，toys，park benches，etc. ，made of recycled water bottles，along with buildings and furniture made of reclaimed(再生的)wood and steel.
It's not only companies that will deal with reducing waste；individuals will need to use more reusable products as well. Take singleuse straws as an example. They have been banned(禁止)everywhere，because they are so bad for the environment and wildlife. "We need to change consumers'(消费者)habits by changing the way they think about singleuse plastics，"says Michael Martin，CEO of a company that produces reusable cups.
Shoppers will turn to companies that produce green products. These consumers care a lot about the environment. They want to know how raw materials are got，where they come from and what their potential(潜在的)influence is on the environment.
Anyone who has a hard time opening a bottle of pills or a new toy will be happy to hear this: In the next ten years，we can expect to see more brands using recycled materials overall for packaging，though it will take a long time. |
