Question

Name the processes involved in reducing the waste.

Answer 1

• Reduce in its original sense means to limit the usage.
  
• But in environmental sense reduce also has another meaning.
  
• It means in the process of producing any product, the raw material used should be in such a way that it produces less waste.
  
• Though wastes cannot be eliminated, it can definitely be reduced.
  
• It is always necessary to reduce the waste to keep environment safe from pollution.
• Switching to reusable products like milk bottles instead of packets so that the bottles can be used multiple times, reducing municipal waste.
  
• Buying items with less packaging as it is obvious that more packaging produces more wastage.
  
• Buying bulk products is another important solution to reduce waste because individual packing requires more packaging when compared to bulk packaging.
