a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers To reduce garbage, the away must stop
The second step is to reuse It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles After customers empty the bottles,they return them to the stores The manufacturers of the drinks collect bottles, wash them, and then fill them again Theenergy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common
practice In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again Aluminum cansare expensive to make It takes the same amountof energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for threehours When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world’s precious resources
