How can you REUSE things to reduce waste?
We can reuse things by adopting several simple practices in our daily lives.
Paper that has been used on one side can be used for rough work instead of being discarded.
Bottles made of safe materials like steel or copper can be reused by refilling them instead of buying new water bottles.
Toys or decorative things can be made using old newspapers, calendars, bottles, and boxes.
Old clothes can be made into quilts, bags, or given to those in need.
Explanation
Activity 4 provides specific examples of reusing: paper used on one side for rough work, steel or copper bottles for refilling, and making creative items from newspapers and other waste materials. The chapter also mentions making paper bags from newspapers without using scissors or glue.
