It's very tempting to throw things away or even drop them in a recycling bin when we are done with them. Is there a better way?

Reuse & Repurspose
I believe that repurposing and reusing is very important towards our environment, however many who are tempted to throw things away also don’t think about the little things. Repurposing the lives of our items and reusing serves a two way purpose. Your items last longer and you can save a little money depending on what the item is but it also helps the environment by not contributing to the countless waste in our area. One way and idea that many other people can reuse are chobani yogurt cups for starting seedlings. This serves the two way purpose as well. Sometimes you don’t have to reuse, you can give other people items that you don’t want, use or need. It is better giving up items lying around or not in use to someone who will give them a better purpose. For example buying preowned clothes that have been barely touched or “look like new” saves the buyer money and gets it off the hands of someone else. Overall reusing and repurposing benefits everyone including the environment in the long run.
