The Three R’s: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. It is the only way to save the environment from getting deteriorated. We are quickly running out of space and now it is important to learn the three R’s of the environment and put it into practice.

Reduce: Reducing the amount of waste you produce is the best way to help the environment.  For instance buying products with minimum packaging, borrowing things which we do not use often, starting a compost bin, saving energy and water by turning are ways to reduce. To reduce the environment damage caused by cars, increase use of carpooling with friends, walking, taking the bus, or riding your bike instead of driving are the necessary steps to be taken. Same way salvage does for the environment. It helps to reduce the waste by sorting out articles of use.

Reuse: Instead of throwing away articles try to find various efficient ways to reuse it.  For instance, replacing few things in our day to day life like using cloth sacks in place of plastic bags, re-useable lunch bags without creating waste. Donating old clothes, toys and furniture to the needy and poor. Use writing paper on both sides etc.

Recycle: means converting the existing items that can no longer be used and making new items out of them.The paper used in books, newspapers, and packaging can be again recycled to make new paper and similar with broken glass or unusable metals.
