Reduce
The word reduce means to make something smaller. When we talk about reducing our waste, it means to make a smaller amount of garbage. Reducing can be as simple as using fewer paper napkins at a fast food restaurant. Buying products with less packaging helps us reduce the amount of waste we are creating. As well as composting organic materials instead of throwing them in the trash. Rethinking whether we really need everything we buy helps reduce how much we are consuming.
