The 3Rs are used to refer to the three terms that are – Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.

While recycling is easily using the material again, once it is finished, reusing is discovering a new, alternate way to utilize the trash instead of discarding it.

Finally, reducing is to cut down the usage as much, only use as and when required, judiciously.

Reduce:

 

The unnecessary and unwanted wasteful purchases are decreased.

Avoiding waste is the preferable option for waste management.

Reuse:

 

Using the same item more than once in either the same way or modified way.

It is the way to use the materials or items again.

Recycle:

 

It is to make something new from a commodity that has been used earlier.

Processing older items to produce something new in order to save energy and resources.

There are several commodities for instance in your households, kitchens which could be recycled with a little polish perhaps.
