Answer 2

If you make a new basket from an old ice cream bucket you are Recycling.

Option (c) is the correct option.

Because we are converting a waste material (old ice cream bucket) into a new and useful basket.

To keep our Environment clean and healthy, we need to dispose of the waste material in a most effective manner. For a cleaner environment Reducing, Recycling, Reusing and Recovering are good ways of reducing solid waste.

• Reducing:- The lesser the waste, the cleaner the environment. We should try to reduce the amount of waste. For example, using reusable cloth bags in place of plastic bags can reduce a lot of waste.
• Recycling:- One of the ways to reduce waste is to recycle solid waste. Recycling is a process of converting waste materials into new and useful products.
• Reusing:- Recycled items like glass, plastics, paper and aluminium cans can be reused. We can try to find various uses for the things we normally throw away, such as giving old books and toys to a needy child who can use them, instead of throwing them in the trash.
• Recovering:- Recovering is a process of regaining from waste without any pre-processing. For example, waste papers or wood can be used for burning during winters.
