Recycle, Reduce, Reuse

A collection of recycle, reduce, reuse strategies that are written in the form of articles, environmentally safe cleaning solutions, tips and suggestions that you can implement.


Of course, we had heard about the three R's - reduce, recycle, reuse, however, about the only thing that we did previously was put the newspapers in the recycle bin. Our lifestyle didn't allow any extra time to "reduce or reuse", or, at least that is what we thought - how wrong we were!

It seems that everyday there is an article or news clip about a landfill site filling up, or about an area protesting a dump opening in their location. Over the last year, we have read and learned about the three R's, reduce, recycle, reuse, and, the reasons behind them. Now, before we throw anything out, we question if it can be used for another purpose. Implementing the three R's - reduce, recycle, reuse, will help you save money and help protect the environment!


Since our journey to a simple life, and, a life with less stress, we have investigated, implemented, and, improved our lifestyle by practicing the three R's - reduce, recycle, and reuse! You can read recycle, reduce, reuse articles written by us and by others. Living in the country and seeing the beauty around us truly has changed our thinking.

By implementing the three R's we are saving money! Rather than buying items, we are finding creative ways to reuse item. We also question our needs that have reduced our purchases. We recycle all that we can, from plastic containers to clothes. Here in Atlantic Canada, you receive a refund when you return pop cans, glass bottles, and plastic bottles something other provinces should implement! We share tips and suggestions on reduce, recycle, reuse, by category.We have learned how to make a compost pile from garbage scraps for our garden. The list goes on and on!


As our learning continues we have discovered the dangerous chemicals in some of the cleaning products that we use to use for cleaning our home. We now use environmentally safe cleaning solutions for everyday cleaning problems. These are products that are in most peoples homes.

Implementing the three R's - reduce, recycle, reuse, will help you save money and help protect the environment! And, if we protect the environment we are reducing our stress by living in a healthy world.
