What could be the best title for the passage?
In the past, people tended to classify things as either worth something or worthless. Household, office, and industrial waste, seen as worthless, was usually burned or buried in landfills. However, as landfills fill up, the planet heats up, and energy and raw material prices go up, we are rethinking what we consider" waste" and "pollution." New technologies are making it possible to reuse waste materials, and businesses are finding ways to not only throw away less, but to turn trash into cash.
Recycling is the most widespread form of waste reuse. Not only does it save governments money by reducing spending on landfills, but it also helps companies and individuals lower garbage disposal costs. Another type of waste, organic material, has a clear economic value. Scientists have developed ways to turn vegetables, grains into biofuel. Through creative efforts, other waste materials are being turned into completely new products. An interesting example is EaKo, a UK- based company which makes beautiful bags and wallets from used fire hoses. On the other side of the world, a local government effort in the Philippines to turn old plastic bags and other materials into construction blocks.

Even factories are finding opportunities to increase profits in Earth-friendly ways. As goods are produced, factories often generate large amounts of heat and gas, which are then released into the air. Yet by refitting a plant, it is possible to capture these materials and turn them into energy, which the factory can then reuse. Excess energy can even be sold to power companies for a profit. Recaptured energy from US factories could meet 20% of the country's power needs.
