Question

Write a short note on the 3Rs strategy for managing non-biodegradable waste​

Answer 1

Answer:

The 3r’s of waste management stands for:

Reduce , Reuse , Recycle

Reduce

We need to reduce the amount of waste generated by consuming more and throwing away less. We often buy more things than we really need. Nowadays, disposable items have become popular, for example, ballpoint pens, plastic bags, disposable napkins, etc. We are using them frequently without giving a thought to their hazardous effects.

Here are some tips for reducing wastes:

• Use a fountain pen in place of a ballpoint pen,
• Use old newspapers for packaging, and
• Use cloth napkins in place of disposable ones.

Reuse

We can reuse certain things for more than one purpose. If we reuse them for other purposes, we can help in reducing waste.

Here are some of the tips for reusing things:

• Small jars and bottles can be cleaned to keep some other kitchen stuffs.
• One should prefer a glass bottle to metal can when buying juice or a soft drink. The bottles can be refilled.

• Old clothes can be made into other usable items like cushion cover, handkerchief, etc.

• Old mobile phones can be donated to friends or family.

Recycle

The process by which waste materials are used to make new products is called recycling. Materials like glass, metal, plastic, and paper are collected, separated, and recycled to make new things.

Here are some of the tips for reusing things:

• Paper, cotton, and jute bags should be preferred over plastic bags.
• We should always write on both sides of paper sheets.
• We can also make fresh paper from old newspapers.

• Some disposable plastic containers and jars can be used to grow plants.
