  2. What is reuse Reuse is the action or practice of using something again, whether for its original purpose (conventional reuse) or to fulfil a different function (creative reuse or repurposing). It should be distinguished from recycling, which is the breaking down of used items to make raw materials for the manufacture of new products. Reuse – by taking, but not reprocessing, previously used items – helps save time, money, energy and resources. In broader economic terms, it can make quality products available to people and organizations with limited means, while generating jobs and business activity that contribute to the economy.

  3. What is reduce In the US, we generate more waste than any other country in the world, recycle far less than other developed nations, and waste half of our food, which costs us $164 billion annually, more than half of our energy through inefficiency, three-quarters of our fuel in gas guzzlers, 95% of water in our homes, at least 11.4 billion dollars in recyclables and so forth. Waste can contaminate virtually anything, including soil, air, surface and ground water, which can lead to serious problems for humans, other species and ecosystems. Waste treatment and disposal produces significant greenhouse gas emissions, including carbon dioxide and methane, which are contributing significantly to global climate change and attracts rodents and insects which harbor gastrointestinal parasites, yellow fever, worms, the plague and other conditions for humans. Exposure to hazardous wastes, particularly when they are incinerated, can cause various other diseases including cancers.

  4. What is recycle Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects. It is an alternative to "conventional" waste disposal that can save material and help lower greenhouse gas emissions. Recycling can prevent the waste of potentially useful materials and reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, thereby reducing: energy usage, air pollution (from incineration), and water pollution (from landfilling). Recycling is a key component of modern waste reduction and is the third component of the "Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle" waste hierarchy.[1][2] Thus, recycling aims at environmental sustainability by substituting raw material inputs into and redirecting waste outputs out of the economic system.[3] There are some ISO standards related to recycling such as ISO 15270:2008 for plastics waste and ISO 14001:2015 for environmental management control of recycling practice.
