Most of us aren’t aware of the fact that the items we use in our daily life have a huge impact on our environment. Our planet Earth faces an enormous challenge in the form of global warming, which can cause irreversible damage to the natural environment and the ecosystems in it, if not controlled in time. Believe it or not, by incorporating little changes to our routine, we can at least slow the process of climate change, if not completely eradicate the threat. Of course, it\u2019s not something unachievable, we can simply start with using eco-friendly alternatives to everyday items. We can also work on ways to make our homes energy efficient<\/a>.

However reading a few articles about \u201cThe Three R\u2019s (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) Waste Hierarchy\u201d on the internet would help you understand the severity of the situation and gain knowledge about the measures that can be taken to curb it. Before we tell you more about the eco-friendly alternatives to everyday items, let\u2019s give you a brief intro of \u201cThe Three R\u2019s (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) Waste Hierarchy\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waste Hierarchy: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The basic purpose of following the waste hierarchy based on the popular 3R\u2019s (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) is to set priorities to make the efficient use of the available resources and increase the sustainability of waste management. Countries around the world are now working on waste treatment policies, which are based on a systemic approach of productively handling and managing waste. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Such policies are also the need of an hour in countries like Pakistan where, according to a report, around 20 million tons of solid waste is produced only in Karachi, which is the country\u2019s largest city. However, the recent ban on plastic bags by the government of Pakistan<\/a> is an appreciable move in this regard. So, now let\u2019s learn how we can incorporate little change in our lifestyle to help make our world a cleaner, greener place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
