Waste that is not created in the first place
does not need to be recycled or reused therefore reduction is
the most environmentally friendly way to tackle the ever increasing
amount of waste.
How can the waste be prevented in the first place?
- Avoid buying products with excessive layers of packaging
- Find out if there is a more durable, longer lasting alternative
to the product you want to buy
- Buy recycled goods whenever you can, and encourage your local
retailers to stock recycled products
- Waste reduction conserves resources and saves money as well
as landfill space
