Many of us at one point in time have started recycling everything we possibly could but then with time the motivation dies and most of just ends up in the trash. Well when I was younger I went to a trash facility and saw many workers sorting the plastics, glasses and metals that where on a conveyor belt but now it seems that they are starting to let the machines do all the work. If you check out the video above you will see a recycling factory that sorts through all the papers, plastics etc and send each of its own type to a separate area.

They still need people working to sort some things but the machines take care of almost everything. For the metals they use magnets and for every type of recyclable they have a different method. You can check out the video above for more details and to actually see the process.
