The first R signifies Reduce. Reduce the quantity of waste by becoming alert customers. Think about buying products that are little or not wrapped at all, or even avoid individually wrapped products.
Can't reduce? So Reuse! Reutilisation is the second R. Reuse containers for leftovers or other products. You have always been reutilizing, be it at the library, the video club or the antiquary.
Getting tired of collecting odd things? Then recycle! A blue bin is waiting close-by for you to dispose of all these wastes. The last R thus stands for Recuperation.
Finally, the last R stands for Recovery, the last step before elimination. Many enterprises transform recyclable materials into a wide variety of new products.
