What is Reuse? |

Reuse is the Solution |
While manufacturing new products drains our limited natural resources and disposing unwanted materials pollutes our environment, our communities are encumbered for lack of affordable goods.One
way to prevent waste, improve our communities, and increase the material well-being of our citizens is to take useful products discarded by those who no longer want or need them and provide them to those who do.
This is reuse - an old business taking on many new forms! Every community has some existing form of reuse - every community needs more reuse now! Volunteer efforts, for-profit businesses and charities are all making
reuse happen including:
- thrift stores and charitable drop-off centers;
- efforts supplying charities, low-income people, food banks, and schools with reusable equipment and materials;
- "drop & swap" stations at landfills;
- used equipment stores and salvage yards;
- local and regional material exchanges.
