Reusing Is Better Than Reducing and Recycling

Although Reducing and Recycling are important, reusing is the more important. Here are a few simple things you can do to reuse:

1. When you are buying things look for opportunities to use your own container.  Coffee Shops allow you to purchase a reusable container and often provide a discount for you as well.
2. Rather than buying water bottles you can buy ones like Swell that can be reused and keep your liquids either hot or cold.
3. Now a lot of retail stores will likely not like this one but go to a consignment shop or shop on ebay at stores like bgy.cou.ture for used items.  These items are in good condition and you will probably save some money too over purchasing new.

If you have other tips then please comment so others can benefit. Our environment will thank you too.
