The Three R's

The basics of environmental sustainability is the three R's, and I recently realized I didn't have a post on them.

Reduce
The first stage of environmental responsibility. It encourages people to only buy what they need, and to cut down on the amount of resources they use. Also, try to buy products with less packaging.

Re-use
This is the second step for environmental responsibility. For all the things you are about to throw out, think about how you could give it a second life, or if there is anyone else you know who could use it.

Recycle
This is the third step for environmental responsibility. It means that once you've used an item, recycle it so that less new materials have to be used up.

The three R's are a very important part of helping the environment, and should be kept in mind whenever buying something new, or getting rid of something.
