The 5 R's principle adoption in our daily lives can minimize the plastic crisis to a great extent, which is one of the greatest facing Global Environmental challenges these days.

  • The 5 R's are Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose and Recycle.
  • It is clear from this that 4 voluntary actions should be taken prior to recycling to minimize landfill plastic waste.
  • Refuse: Practice to Say "No" to non-recyclable plastic products. Always turn with smarter purchasing decisions. Carry a cloth bag or jute bag when you meet a vendor or at the grocery shop.
  • Reduce: Minimize the dependency on harmful, non-recyclable products or always use the products that result in less waste.
  • Reuse: " Single time Use and throw away" practice should be forgotten. Try to reuse items instead of buying new ones. Move on with reusable alternatives.
  • Repurpose: It is a type of upcycling. It is not possible to fit on reuse every time so think creatively to find another purpose for the same product.
  • Recycle: It is the last step of the 5 R's. It is the simple practice of making sure the usage of waste products itself as a resource and thus can recover valuable items from the trash via certain cheap processes.
