Do you consider the waste {that a} product will create earlier than you make a purchase order? This is precycling, the step you make earlier than recycling — it helps you keep away from waste within the first place. Consider these questions earlier than you make a purchase order and also you’ll be in your strategy to efficient precycling:

  • Is a product created from recycled supplies? Is the product itself recyclable on the finish of its life?
  • How a lot packaging is there? Is the packaging simply recyclable?
  • Do you actually need this product? Do you may have one thing you may reuse or repurpose as a substitute?
