Questions to ask

When making purchasing decisions, it pays to do a little homework.

Consider the following:

  • Is the product less hazardous?
  • Is it reusable or more durable?
  • Is it made from recycled materials?  Do we really need to buy a virgin product when the recycled version is just as good?
  • What happens to the product at the end of its life?  Can it be recycled?  Will the manufacturer take the product back?  Will it need special disposal?
  • Does it conserve energy or water?
  • Is it made from renewable plant-based raw materials?

reduce, reuse, recycle
