The 4 Rs
	Reduce Each person on average produces more than 1,600 pounds of trash each year. Simply changing our habits can help reduce this. Instead of using plastic grocery bags, use reusable cloth bags. Buy products that use less packaging materials.	0 Posts 0 Topics
	Reuse Or Renew Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products perceived to be of greater quality, such as artistic value or environmental value.	51 Posts 48 Topics	Last post by Shadav in Broken Chair Repurposed ... on a month ago

	Recycle Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects. The recyclability of a material depends on its ability to reacquire the properties it had in its virgin or original state. It is an alternative to "conventional" waste disposal that can save material and help lower greenhouse gas emissions. Recycling can prevent the waste of potentially useful materials and reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, thereby reducing: energy usage, air pollution (from incineration), and water pollution (from landfilling).	2 Posts 2 Topics	Last post by Shadav in Homemade Sidewalk Chalk on 4 months ago
