	Recycling K-12 Experiments for Lesson Plans & Science Fair Projects
		Motivations for recycling include environmental sustainability and business economics: sustainability because the reused material both prevents waste and reduces the consumption of new raw materials, and economics because it can be cheaper to produce to products from reused or recycled materials.
		However, recycling becomes relatively cheaper when externalities associated with raw material extraction and landfill (or incineration) are included, especially environmental and health effects.
		Recycling may still be socially efficient even when carried out at a financial loss - although an alternative to avoid this would be to tax raw material use appropriately so that prices fully reflect all the costs involved, instead of subsidising recycling.

	Recycling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Motivations for recycling include environmental concerns, as recycling reduces the use of energy and raw materials and the need to dispose of waste, and for cost reasons, in situations where production from recycled material is less expensive than from new material.
		Recycled materials can be derived from pre-consumer waste (materials used in manufacturing), or post-consumer waste (materials discarded by the consumer).
		Recycling may still be socially efficient even when carried out at a financial loss - although an alternative to avoid this would be to tax raw material use appropriately so that prices fully reflect all the costs involved, instead of subsidising recycling.

	Recycling
		The process by which the University recycles requires source separation where things are separated by students and faculty.
		Recycling is the re-use of materials that would otherwise be considered waste.
		In theory, recycling would be a continuing reuse of materials for the same purpose, but in practice much recycling extends the useful life of a material, but in a less versatile form.

	Ship-Submarine recycling program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A submarine is cut into three or four pieces: the aft section, the reactor compartment, the missile compartment if one exists, and the forward section.
		In the process of submarine recycling, all hazardous and toxic wastes are identified and removed, reusable equipment is removed and put into inventory.
		Submarines marked cancelled were scheduled to be inactivated and recycled, but instead will be refueled and given a comprehensive overhaul.

		Recycling is the reuse of materials that would otherwise be considered waste, usually in some other form (as compared to reuse, which is reuse of the material in the same form).
		In theory, recycling would be a continuing reuse of materials for the same purpose, but in practice much recycling extends the useful life of a material, but in a less versatile form.
		For example, as paper is recycled, the fibers shorten, making it less useful for higher grade papers.

		It was planned to build three or four submarines per year during from 1989 to 2000, for a total of 29 submarines at a total cost of $36 billion.
		It is also clear that the CIA knew the condition of the submarine, leading to speculation that the submarine was broken in two (or more) pieces, with the moon pool built to accommodate the largest pieces.
