1. RE- USE
Unit 2: SUSTAINABILITY

2. What does Re-use Mean??
Reuse is to use an item more than once. This includes conventional reuse where the item is used again for the same function, and new- life reuse where it is used for a new function. In contrast, recycling is the breaking down of the used item into raw materials which are used to make new items. By taking useful products and exchanging them, without reprocessing, reuse help us save time, money, energy and resources.
