Answer 2

The four R's are- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Recover.

• Reduce: It means that we need to limit the increasing demand for resources in the world. For example, we should reduce the use of plastic which is environmentally hazardous and use paper instead.
• Reuse: It means that we need to extend the usage of materials and give them a longer life. For example, we can reuse the plastic cups and waste papers and turn them into decorative items.
• Recycle: We can also substitute used material for the virgin raw materials. For example, recycling of used batteries.
• Recover: Energy for other processes can be generated by the waste obtained on repeated reuse and recycling.
