Reduce, reuse, recycle
- Jessica Reilly
The biggest green trend of the year is reduction of waste. Remember — Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
Approximately 267 people are born every minute; in turn our world grows larger every day. The bad news is, so does our waste! With that many people, our waste has risen significantly over the past 25 years.
Good thing businesses and consumers have taken notice to this and have started to Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle. The first step in gaining control of our waste is to reduce the amount needed to produce these materials. Reusing containers, parts, items, etc. is a great way to keep the demand for materials down and to keep items out of our trash receptacles. Recycling is another great way to limit our waste. Trash, paper, glass, electronic, and oil recycling have generously impacted our environment in a positive way by eliminating trips to the landfill. This also prevents our rivers, lakes, oceans, and streams from being impacted from hazardous material contaminating our water.
People are living longer than ever in today's world. In order for us all to live comfortably and cleanly, we need everyone to Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Plus recycling sets a great example for our younger generations!
