Why reduce waste?
A large percentage of households do not recycle enough and throw everything that they consider “rubbish” into their ordinary bin. However, waste reduction requires more than good recycling habits; the aim of waste reduction is to minimize waste before it is produced! In other words we must try to bring home less products that will end up in the trash bin and to reuse as many items as possible.
How to do that?
Analyze your trash for a few days to get familiar with the stuff you throw out (it might surprise you!) Then, think about how you might reduce your trash by changing some habits. Below there are some suggestions to reduce the amount of material that requires disposal:
- Buy bulk-packaged items to cut down on individual packaging.
- Buy products in reusable or recyclable containers.
- Don’t buy disposable products when you can avoid them.
- Patronize restaurants and other businesses that use recyclable or biodegradable wrappings.
Now it is your turn to think about ways to reduce waste. Write your suggestion on the comment section below and share your thoughts with your peers!
