Reduce, reduce, reduce

The 3 Rs of creation care are reduce, reuse, recycle but many of us skip over the first two and go straight to recycle.

Secondly, unless policy changes and recycled product content is embraced by industry in everything, we will never use all we consume. Finally, for all our efforts there is plenty that can't be recycled. Join Beth and her sister Kendra, as they discuss what this all means and simple steps you can take at home to reduce your lifestyle and then reuse what you do use and then recycle it.
