There are many ways to produce less waste:
- Reduce the amount and toxicity of trash you throw away and reuse containers and products.
- Recycle as much as possible and buy products with recycled content.
- Practice composting by using microorganisms (mainly bacteria and fungi) to decompose organic waste, such as food scraps and yard trimmings.
The concept of reduce, reuse, and recycle is equally important for household hazardous waste and industrial materials.
- Household Hazardous Waste: Improper disposal of leftover household products that contain corrosive, toxic, ignitable, or reactive ingredients can pollute the environment and pose a threat to human health.
- Industrial Materials: Industrial non-hazardous wastes that can be recycled and reused are key to a successful resource conservation program.
