The results of this study (Table 1) corroborated the results of previous studies that also showed the same thing
regarding the benefits of recycling. The results showed that recycling can achieve significant energy savings,
including reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This was confirmed by research conducted in Sweden [14], in Taipei
(Taiwan) [15], in Phuket (Thailand) [16], in Lahore (Pakistan) [17], and in Ribeirao Pires (Brazil) [18]. Not only
that, recycling also lowers the economic costs [19], and may contribute to the preservation of natural resources [17]
