Reduce – Reuse- Recycle
Concept: The principle of reducing waste, reusing and recycling resources and products
is often called the "3Rs." Reducing means choosing to use things with care to reduce the
amount of waste generated. Reusing involves the repeated use of items or parts of items which
still have usable aspects. Recycling means the use of waste itself as resources. Waste
minimization can be achieved in an efficient way by focusing primarily on the first of the 3Rs,
"reduce," followed by "reuse" and then "recycle."
Instructions: Choose three objects below and identify where the item belong; reduced,
reused, or recycled. (To reuse also means to be composted). Lastly, justify your answer by
giving a brief explanation as to why it is classified as reducing, reusing or recycling.
