3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle)
The 3Rs—Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle—are guiding principles for managing waste sustainably. "Reduce" means cutting down on the amount of goods and materials we use, minimizing waste before it’s created. "Reuse" involves finding new uses for items instead of throwing them away, extending their life. "Recycle" is processing used materials into new products, conserving resources and energy. Together, the 3Rs help lessen environmental impact, preserve natural resources, and decrease landfill waste. Adopting these practices encourages responsible consumption and supports ecological balance.
