    This document discusses the 6 R's of reducing waste: reduce, reuse, recycle, recover, redesign, and remanufacture. [1] Reduce means consuming fewer materials and goods by limiting purchases and maintaining products. [2] Reuse involves finding new uses for old items like plastic bottles and egg cartons. [3] Recycling collects materials that would be trash and turns them into new products. [4] Recover prepares waste to replace other materials. [5] Redesign creates new ideas from reworking old materials. [6] Remanufacturing refurbishes and resells products using reused, repaired and new parts. The benefits of these strategies include conserving resources, reducing pollution
