Answer:
The three R’s : Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. These three are the best way to make a positive impact on our environment. It’s important to put these into practice, as landfill space is quickly running out, the plastic pollution in our oceans are increasing, and our environment is deteriorating at a faster pace.
Reduce: One of the best ways to help the environment is to reduce the amount of waste you produce!
● Shopping - The majority of grocery stores are even getting on board, offering bins of beans, popcorn kernels, nuts, and seeds and more, to buy in bulk, to aid in the effort of reducing packaging waste.
● Carpooling – carpooling, walking, taking public transportation or riding your bike instead of driving can make more of an impact that you think. Not only do you save on gas, but you reduce the amount of emissions that are polluting our air quality.
● Decluttering – Some of us have a bad habit of throwing away things when we are decluttering or spring cleaning our homes, work spaces, and garages. The majority of things that typically get thrown out, can in fact be donated.
Reuse: Instead of using one-time use items, like plastic water bottles or plastic grocery bags, opt in for a reusable option.
● Food & drink – Store leftovers in reusable containers instead of using plastic zipper baggies. Pack lunches in these containers as well. Reusing jars that sauces, salsas, etc.
● Clothes & household items – There are a TON of upcycle ideas, crafts, and ways to upcycle and reuse old clothing and old houseware items.
● Work place & School – Use both sides of writing paper. Create scratch paper for reminders, notes, and important tasks by cutting paper into 4’s – this is a great way to use up all the paper you can before recycling it.
Recycle: Recycling is beneficial in so many ways. Not only are you preventing recyclable items from ending up in landfill where it can take 100’s of years to decompose, but you’re giving your recyclable item a chance to get made into something else.
● Motor oils - many auto parts stores accept used motor oil and other auto fluids for recycling or disposal! DO NOT throw motor oils in the basic trash bin - this is considered a hazardous waste.
● Tires - Tires are typically not even allowed to be dropped off at landfills
● Car Batteries - these can also be recycled. Take them to your auto shop or car parts store, they have a program where they ship these out to be recycled properly.
