I think that we should definitely try to make an effort to reuse our waste and give it more than one purpose. Some ways people might try to reuse items can be reusing your plastic straws or investing in a metal straw, switching to a reusable water bottle and reusing the plastic as a container for something else or a plant pot (this works for any type of plastic container). You can compost your food waste like peels, seeds, dead leaves, paper, etc. On the topic of paper, you can use the blank side of scrap paper when taking notes or drawing, as opposed to using a brand new sheet. Some people have even started to reuse paper by making their own sheets using paper scraps and dying it different colors!
