Waste Management and Recycling

Reduce

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
