What is source reduction?
Source reduction, often called "waste prevention", is any change in the design, manufacturing, purchase, or use of materials or products (including packaging) to reduce their amount or toxicity before they become municipal solid waste. Prevention also refers to the reuse of products or materials. (Environmental Protection Agency)
Source reduction is the #1 method of waste management and yet is often ignored by communities around the world.
With source reduction, waste will not be placed in landfills and it reduces the vicious cycle of treatment processing of recycled products; which involves transportation, oil, gas, etc.
