 A simple way of contributing to Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and making a small

difference towards waste disposal is to adopt the 3 R's - Reduce, Reuse and

Recycle.

 Landfills across India are overloaded and it is estimated that if waste

generation is not reduced, then by 2030 the waste generation is likely

increase to 165 million tonnes from 62 million tonnes.Re-purposing your

household trash is a good way to reduce waste.

 For example, instead of throwing the plastic bottles use them to decorate your

house and make other DIY plastic showpieces.

 Switch to items that can be refilled like printer cartridges or glue, reuse plastic

folders. Use old wood and pallets to build compost bins.

 Reuse toiletries like shampoo bottles as cell charging stations, old

toothbrushes as cleaning tools.
