Benefits of Reuse & Repurpose
Reusing and Repurposing has a big impact on our environment today. Reusing and Repurposing are major ways that you can save natural resources, protect the environment, and save money. Making new products uses up a majority of energy and materials, and raw materials must be extracted from earth. Doing these two things can reduce the amount of waste that will need to be recycled or sent to landfills and incinerators. Reusing and Repurposing can also reduce greenhouse emissions that contribute to global climate change.
