Reusing Instead of Recycling Is Better For The Environment

In our world today, we can no longer afford to be as carefree as we were before.  Every little bit we do to help the  planet matters.  Recycling is a good step, but re-using is even better for our environment.  We wonder why the government hasn't promoted re-using over recycling.  Recycling metal and plastic requires industrial processes that may not be pollution free.  This is why we're promoting reuse.  In our new reuse segment, we'll be posting some of our ideas on how products we use can be reused.  Please feel free to share some of your ideas and together we can help save the planet.

A product that can be reused after use is Tic Tac's 200 mint bottle.  It's got a little flap on top and the whole lid can also be opened.  Removing the plastic Tic Tac label makes the container translucent.  The label comes off easily and won't leave a sticky mess.  It can be used as a large container for salt or pepper to be placed on the table.  It can also be used as a container for all the flash drives and other small items needed for the day.  It can also be used to hold paperclips.  While it can be recycled, reusing the container is better for the environment and reducing our impact on the planet.
