Verified by Toppr

The correct option is D All the above
Recyclable wastes can be reused into new materials. For example, paper can be recycled and this will reduce deforestation because the paper is made from wood pulp. Torn clothes can be recycled to form bags and into other usable forms. Metallic and plastic discards can be melted and recycled into usable forms any number of times. Recycling reduces environmental pollution and uses less energy as compared to the production of new materials from raw materials.
Hence, all the options are correct.
So, the correct answer is 'All the above'.
