Presentación Reciclaje y Sostenibilidad Moderno y Elegante Con Fotografías en Color Verde, Blanco y Rosa

Kiara and Guilherme discuss the 3 R's of reducing, reusing, and recycling waste. They explain that reducing means consuming fewer disposable products to create less trash. Reusing gives materials a second life before throwing them away. Recycling involves separating waste types and placing them in the proper containers (gray, brown, green, blue, yellow) to be processed into new products. The benefits mentioned are energy savings, reduced pollution, conservation of natural resources, and extending the life of landfills.

05 Benefits
01. Reduce

Reducing consists, precisely, of consuming fewer


“throwaway” products to generate less waste. For
example, a first step would be, instead of buying 6
cans of drinks, to buy two large bottles, so that we
generate less waste. Thus, little by little, we will
reduce the waste we generate
02. Reuse

Reusing consists of giving a second life to


materials or objects before throwing them away.
This way we extend its useful life and make the
most of its properties, also reducing the waste
we generate. In this sense, crafts are a perfect
alternative to liven up the afternoons and take
advantage of any material that would otherwise
end up in the trash.
03. Recucle
This task begins in homes, where citizens must
separate the different types of waste and deposit
them in the corresponding container. Thus, they will
then be treated to manufacture materials that can be
used in the creation of new products.
