	Well organized recycling takes care of the separation and correct routing of the following [[packaging]] materials and '''informs the public about the recycling process''' e.g. If some beverage cartons are recycled the [[consumer]]s preparations for the process may vary on the process they are instigating. If the cartons get burned then cleanliness of the is mostly a question of the working place comfort of the people working for the process ie. well washed cartons don't smell so rotten.

	Recycling is not the ideal way to reduce waste. [[Reuse]] (see [[modular hardware]] in particular) is better and more [[nature friendliness\|nature friendly]]. And [[material conservation]], which includes designing things to go more slowly [[obsolete]], is better yet. And requiring [[product take-back]] by the manufacturer puts the responsibility for this exactly where it belongs, where the design and modularity can really be dealt with, and, where an [[industrial ecology]] can evolve to do it better and use '''waste as a resource.'''
