Reduce
We must try to reduce or simplify the consumption of direct products, that is, all those that are bought and consumed, since they have a direct relationship with waste.
For example, instead of buying 6 small cans of a drink, buy two large bottles, you will have the same product but you will have generated less waste or by-products.
Re-use
Here we refer to being able to reuse things. To give them as much use as possible before the time comes to get rid of them. And thus, decrease the volume to deposit in a landfill, sanitary landfill or recycling plant.
This task is usually the one that receives the least attention and is one of the most important. For example, when you go shopping make a car or reusable bags.
Recycle
The last of the tasks is to recycle, which consists of subjecting used materials or waste to a transformation or use process so that they can be used again.
