Answer:

Explanation:

REDUCE: is to limit the amount of waste you create in the first place. This includes buying products with less packaging.

REUSE: means to use something again that you would normally throw away (eg. Glass jar for food or plastic bags for bin liners.)

RECYCLE:means the product goes through a mechanical process to change its form. This is only recommended when reducing and reusing are not possible.

RECOVER:is to convert waste into resources (such as electricity, heat, compost and fuel) through thermal and biological means. Resource Recovery occurs after reduce, reuse and recycle have been attempted.

Answer:

The 4R means Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Restore.

(i) Reduce: We should reduce the use of non-biodegradable compounds that are harmful to us.

Example: Instead of using polythene bags we should give preference to paper bags.

(ii) Reuse: We should reuse the materials instead of dumping them.

Example: Plastic bags can be reused to make decorative things.

(iii) Recycle: Non-biodegradable materials should be subjected to the recycling process.

Example: Plastic materials.

(iv) Recovery: If the waste remains after it is been reused and recycled, we can use it to generate energy at our waste-energy plant. This is known as Recovery.
