IMPORTANCE OF 3R’S

REUSE,REDUCE,& RECYCLE
. Think about this three ways:-

 REDUCE- The amount of the Earth’s resources


that we use.
 RESUSE- Don’t just bin it, could someone else
make use of it?
 RECYCLE- Can the materials be made into
something new?
REDUCE
 Reduce: to make something smaller or use
less, resulting in a smaller amount of waste.
 “Source reduction” is reducing waste before
you purchase it, or by purchasing products
that are not wasteful in their packaging or
use.
 A key part of waste “reduction” is
“conservation”-using natural resources
wisely, and using less than usual in order
avoid waste.
WASTE REDUCTION
 Make double sided copies.
 Circulate memos, documents and magazines.
 Use durable cups and silverware.
 Purchase items with minimal packaging.
 Send e-cards.
 Use less plastic bottles.
REUSE
 Reuse: to use again or more than once
 Reuse materials and items so that they have
longer life spans and don’t get thrown away
after the first use.
 Many items found around the home can be
used for different purposes.
 So before you throw those items away, think
about how they can be reused.
REUSE
 Reuse envelopes.
 Reuse single-sided paper for scratch paper.
 Reuse packaging materials.
 Reuse remanufactured or surplus office
equipment.
 Use rechargeable batteries.
 Donate toys and other items to charity.
 Reuse garbage to make different items.
RECYCLE
 Recycle: to convert materials/waste into
reusable materials.
 Landfills are full of items that could be
recycled.
 Recycling puts objects through a process that
allows them to be used again.
BENEFITS OF RECYCLE
 Recycling prevents pollution.
 Recycling saves energy.
 Recycling decreases emissions of greenhouse

gases that contribute to global climate


change.
 Recycling conserves natural resources.
 Recycling helps sustain the environment for

future generations.
