Reducing, reusing and recycling will save energy. Waste prevention culture via reducing and reusing a product will ensure less material is used and less energy is needed to extract, transport and process raw materials and to manufacture products. On top of that, supporting recycling activities and purchasing goods made from recycled materials will ensure that less energy is required as it only goes through a redesign phase rather than being manufactured from virgin materials i.e., from scratch. What are the benefits? When energy demand decreases, fewer fossil fuels are burned and less carbon dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere.

Reducing, reusing and recycling not only save GHG from being emitted but also reduce the release of chemicals by the manufacturing industry, reduce health hazards and reduce environmental degradation while preserving natural and pristine places.
