Interestingly, it is discovered that (and I'd like to re-iterate here) recycling isn't just a modern day phenomenon- with significance spreading globally like wildfire but a historical phenomenon.
For this paradoxical concept to be properly practiced, it is important to think through one of the important aspects of the recycling process: the careful understanding of what can be recycled and what may not be considered recyclable.
Although we have as part of the recyclable material family the biodegradable food and garden wastes which are used as compost, majority of all recyclable materials are of a non-biodegradable nature.
Recyclable materials are said to range from many kinds of glass, paper, cardboard, metal, plastic, tires, textiles, batteries, and electronics.
Through many budding city-wide/sub-urban/residential property initiatives these aforementioned recyclables are picked from source, sorted through (in some cases) then cleaned for simply reusing or for reprocessing into new materials for manufacturing new products into fresh supplies of same material used plastic bottles into new plastic bottles or used metal cans into new metal cans for example) or utilising just the constituent material from complex products.
So, it suffices to say that gathering of recyclable waste isn't for a select urban/city occupying few but for all of us living within this post-industrialized π globe- village, city and the likes.

ππ Did you know that... Early vacuum cleaners were massive and had to be drawn by horse from door to door! Imagine...?! But, in 1907, just within the second industrial revolution, it is said that James Spangler had the brilliant idea to combine the design of the carpet sweeper with the mechanics of a vacuum, creating the earliest known version of a portable vacuum cleaner. The vacuum has perhaps evolved most significantly, marked by the creation of the first cordless, handheld mini-vacuum cleaner by Black & Decker nearly 30 years ago! From further findings, we see that the vacuum cleaner's emergence into a household dust extracting must-have, can also be connected to many great minds cutting across Engineers to Janitors who saw possibilities and brought forward their innovative thoughts into what we see as the Vacuum cleaner today (surely still evolving in ways to give the consumer a valuable experience) Basically the vacuum cleaner (once known as simply sweeper and even
