Buy what you need, make it last:Make your purchases intentional and well-thought out so that when you buy new things, they serve a good purpose and last as long as they possibly can.

REUSE:Use items over and over. Keep using what you have and find new ways to use it when you think you just can’t use it anymore! Practical and creative reuse prevent waste.
