∙ 12y agoThe three best solutions would be:
1) Bring a refillable bottles instead of using the disposable ones.
2) Copy and print on both sides of the paper; use the printer wisely.
3) Instead of notebooks, make use of a refillable binder or bring your laptop to school to take notes (not an excuse to surf the internet)
Bring gloves to school so you can pick up any trash you see on the ground so alot of bugs, animals ETC dont come and pick at it or eat it.

∙ 13y agoUse both sides of your notebook paper, and use returned pieces of printed paper, such as returned worksheets or quizzes, as scratch paper or for doodling. Use a large eraser for removing a lot of invalid work, instead of throwing the paper away. Finally, be creative and try to find other uses for old paper, like making pieces of stationery from home-recycled paper or using it for paper mache!

if you're school has disposable trays at lunch, don't take one if you don't need it. Use both sides of the paper if you're taking notes.

What does reduce mean in recycling?
Reduce in recycling means before you send waste to recycle you do an assessment of the trash that you are throwing away. Often times after you really look hard at the trash your throwing, you can reduce the amount of trash by simply buying less, purchasing products that have less packaging or purchasing second hand products. By purchasing second hand, for example from a thrift store the packaging has already been disposed of thereby eliminating trash. Another way to reduce trash is buy buying bulk, reusing plastic bags or even bringing canvas bags for shopping. Reduce in reduce, reuse and recycle is the important first step.
Why is important to reduce?
It is important to reduce for many reasons. The most obvious reason is that it cuts back on trash. Trash piles up in landfills year after year, and the trash is compacted so tight that air cannot penetrate the bottom layer of trash; therefore the trash will never decompose. So reducing the amount of trash you create will reduce the amount of buildup in landfills. Also a lot of items we use are not decomposable, so even if you did have the chance to decompose them, it wouldn't make a difference. Reducing the amount of water and food you waste is important because of landfill pile up too, but also because water and food are not renewable. That may seem unreasonable because the earth is mostly water, but most of that water is unusable, and the worlds large population is using it faster than it can replenish its self. Same goes for food. The land we grow our food on can only be used so much before it can no longer grow anything, and once again the population is requiring more food than our land can keep up with. This may not seem like a problem now because of how convenient it is too get food, but eventually when our land had no more nutrients to grow crops, the people living in that time will think back on today and realize how much food we wasted. So in reducing the amount of food we waste we can put off that dilemma for a little while.
