It can cause serious blockages in pipes and sewers, leading to overflows that contaminate our precious water sources. By recycling your cooking oil, you prevent harmful pollution and protect aquatic ecosystems, ensuring clean and safe water for everyone. Fuel a renewable future ➡️ did you know that recycled cooking oil can be converted into fuel. This eco-friendly fuel burns cleaner than traditional diesel, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and our dependence on fossil fuels? Reduce landfill waste ➡️ Frylite practice Zero to Landfill. By recycling used cooking oil, we divert waste from overcrowded landfills. This not only conserves landfill space but also reduces the release of methane—a potent greenhouse gas produced by decomposing organic waste. Embrace the Circular Economy ➡️ recycling used cooking oil is a prime example of the circular economy in action. Instead of letting valuable resources go to waste, we repurpose them into new products like fuel. This creates a sustainable loop of resource reuse that benefits both the environment and the economy. Recycling your used cooking oil is easy and impactful. At Frylite Solutions, we provide convenient and efficient recycling services to make sure your used oil is transformed into valuable resources. By partnering with us, you become a champion of sustainability and a protector of our planet.

"We can’t just recycle our way out of the climate emergency; we urgently need to shift mindsets and make reuse and consumption reduction a social norm." (Allison Ogden-Newton OBE, chief executive of Keep Britain Tidy) The message from KBT of "Recycling is good, but we can do better" is excellent. Every glass jar or tin can put into the recycling system gets smashed, crushed and melted. That squanders the energy and resources that went into making it in the first place. We keep on making things, then we smash, crush and melt them ... to make them all over again. Recycling has been a vital step in the journey towards a circular economy (and it will always be there, we will always need to recycle), but it is an energy-intensive process that decimates the value of the original item. However, I do need to acknowledge that, while it is easy to point at the waste management sector and say that things could be more 'circular', the first link in the chain is me and my own purchasing habits. Small changes, multiplied across the population, can make a big difference. I recently made a switch to using a shampoo bar which came in a small cardboard box. That's at least one less plastic bottle in the system. I'm not expecting praise for that, especially when I reveal that I bought an air fryer at the weekend. Did I need an air fryer? I can justify it from an energy point of view, far better to use an air fryer than to use our main oven. But we are all part of the materialist consumer-driven society. The responsibility rests with me to consider how I can consume less. Happy Monday, everyone! #circulareconomy #wastemanagement #resourcemanagement https://lnkd.in/eH4RVzhK
