Before throwing packaging away, see if you can find another use for it such as using boxes for storage or archiving. There are many opportunities to reuse 'waste' paper. If it has only been printed on one side, keep it and use the other side for printing out draft copies of reports and other documents. If you keep a box for storing this paper at the side of your printer or photocopier, you will get into the habit of using it.
When you recycle something, you process it so it can be used again. You might recycle an old tire and make it into a snazzy black knapsack with some very cool skid marks. The prefix re- means again, and when you recycle something, you process it for another cycle of use. The phrase reduce, reuse, recycle gives you three ways to prevent waste. When you recycle plastic bottles, theyâre melted down and made into new bottles or even furniture or clothing. You might do some creative recycling and turn your old textbooks into a coffee table. When you have your washing machine repeat the wash or rinse cycle, thatâs a different recycle.
