Glass Recycling Calculator
The Glass Recycling Calculator helps you measure the positive environmental impact of your glass recycling efforts. Enter the amount of glass (in kg) you've recycled to see estimated savings in energy, CO₂ emissions, resources, and landfill space.
Your Recycling Impact
- Energy Saved: kWh (equivalent to powering a household for days)
- CO₂ Emissions Avoided: kg (like removing a car from the road for km)
- Raw Materials Conserved: ≈ kg (sand, soda ash, etc.)
- Landfill Space Saved: ≈ cubic meters
Note: Estimates based on averages from EPA, GPI, FEVE, and peer-reviewed LCAs (e.g., ~1,200 kWh and ~500 kg CO₂ saved per ton recycled). Actual values vary by region/glass type.
