How We Recycle Copper and Aluminum At Richard S. Burns & Company Inc. 

At Richard S. Burns & Company Inc., we are committed to being environmentally responsible. That’s why we recycle the copper and aluminum that comes from the manufacturing process, and in doing so, we’re able to reduce our carbon footprint.

We take our recycling process seriously. It’s a long process that requires a lot of hard work and attention to detail, but it’s worth it for us because we want to do our part for the planet. Here’s how it works:

First, we gather up all of the scrap metal from the factory floor and clean it up by removing any dirt or contaminants from it. Then it goes through a series of machines that sort out the different types of metals in order to separate them out into different bins according to this type of metal (copper, aluminum). The bins are then taken offsite, where they are sold on an international market as recycled scrap metal.

This process not only keeps us environmentally responsible but also helps us make money off selling these materials instead of having them go into landfills where they could cause problems later on down the line (like with other types of waste).

 

Why Reducing Your Carbon Footprint Is Important

Reducing your carbon footprint is important because it helps the environment.

Carbon emissions are a major contributor to climate change, which is already causing problems like droughts and wildfires.  Reducing your carbon footprint means that you’re lessening the impact of climate change on the world.

One way you can reduce your carbon footprint is by choosing renewable energy sources over fossil fuels when possible. You can also cut down on your use of electricity by unplugging appliances when they’re not in use, taking shorter showers, turning off lights when you leave rooms, and so on.

Another way to reduce your carbon footprint is by reducing the amount of waste that you produce—for instance, by recycling as much as possible instead of throwing things away.
