Non-clicky: Reduce, reuse, recycle

lpennie16

Which of these three do you think you do the best on a regular basis?

I think I reduce and reuse the best. A few examples of how I reduce waste are to use cloths instead of paper towels, bring my own bags to the store and collect cold water for watering plants. I reuse items like boxes for storage, reuse wrapping paper when I can....etc.

I'm not great at recycling. I am trying to work on this.

Recycle and reuse.

I admit we suck hardcore at the reducing.

Reducing and recycling, not so much on the reusing. We don't use paper paper towels, but that's the only thing I can think of that we really reuse.

Recycling is the easiest for me.  The amount of stuff we keep out of our garbage each week is amazing!  There is a paper only bin in the alley behind our house that backs up to an elementary school.  We can walk our paper trash out there everyday.

Reducing is a little trickier.  I use my own bags, cloth diapers, and turn off lights/electronics when not in use.

We recycle like crazy. Our recyclables take up more room than our trash does every week. It's pretty easy here because they do curb-side pickup, but we usually have too much to deal with that, so we take it to the bins in town.

We're doing pretty good at reuse and recycle but need to work on reduce more...a lot more.

We recycle and reduce.  Working on reusing.

I always thought they were listed in order of importance... ? So I guess I'd say reduce is best   We're working on that. We recycle tons, I've gotten much better at reusing, but I'm still trying to cut down on what we bring into the home in the first place.
