Reduce
Minimise the waste of energy and materials by only buying what you need, while looking for items with reduced packaging; avoiding single-use items and repairing existing ones where possible, shopping locally and if able, travelling without the car to reduce transport emissions.
Reuse
Re-purpose existing items to give them a longer life-span e.g. containers that can be re-filled or items that can be up-cycled into something completely new. Selling or donating belongings and shopping second-hand allows many useful items to be used more than once.
Allow for the recovery of useful, and sometimes rare, resources by separating waste and recycling appropriately.
