阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
There are many good reasons for adding recycling to your routine，ranging from a personal level to a global advantage. Recycling your waste makes you more responsible in the way you use and dispose of it. As a result，people end up saving a considerable amount of money while also saving the planet. Individuals，governing bodies and companies can take pride in minimizing their waste as they are helping to reduce global environmental damage and making this earth a better place.
Apart from the environmental benefits，think of the employment that it can generate. You put your waste in different bins. The manpower involved in the logistics and processing of your waste is considerable and thus you are helping to keep people in jobs. What could be more helpful in tough economic times as now than keeping people employed
That is not all of the advantages of recycling. Many charities and community groups raise money through reusing and recycling goods. Your city has many charity shops that will take your unwanted clothes，electronics，furniture and other household items to resell as income for these non-profit organizations and these donations are also tax deductible for you. Some other not-for-profit charities will deliver such clothing and other items to underdeveloped communities around the globe. So，think of the people in need in your local community and in other nations before you throw away all those unused or uneaten stuff into the trash can next time.
When we talk about recycling household and workplace things，we tend to ignore or are less aware of how to deal with the electrical and electronic waste. E-waste is valuable as a source of secondary raw material but poisonous if disposed of improperly. Due to rapid technology development，obsolescent items have created a fast growing mass of electronic waste around the globe.
