Use and Re-use

Re-using products delays or avoids altogether their entry into the waste stream, so think refillable, rechargeable, not disposable, whenever possible.  

  • Challenge your associates to think of ways to give new life to used items, for instance, shredded waste paper makes great packing material.
  • Set up an area to store and exchange reusable office supplies such as folders and binders.

And if you can't reuse a product, there are usually others who can.    Visit Keep America Beautiful's website (http://www.kab.org/) for suggestions on exchange programs and other reuse strategies.
