Answer (1)
1. ) Why do we need to practice the Three (3) Rs" (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle) for the environment?Reducing, reusing and recycling waste helps save landfill space by keeping useful materials out. The amount of energy and natural resources needed to produce or collect the raw materials and manufacture the product are reduced.2.) How important is it to reduce our carbon footprints (total amount of greenhouse gases) produced by human activities?Reducing GHG levels boosts the economy on a global scale, particularly when that means that profitable rewards will be made available for strategies, solutions, and innovations that help protect the planet, fight climate change, and implement the use of clean energy.( No need to thank me! )
