Reuse More Throw Less
• WHAT will be done
Description:
Reuse More Throw Less is a campaign conducted by members of RREUSE, a European network of social enterprises working in reuse, repair and recycling.
RREUSE coordinates and communicates the actions of participating re-use centers across Europe. Every day, each re-use center will weigh items collected and items sold for re-use in their second-hand shops. These weights represent the amount of saved natural resources: avoiding products from becoming waste preserves raw materials and energy.
We aim to raise awareness about the environmental impact of our consumption and the potential of repair and re-use for saving resources. Re-use and repair also have a great social impact because they provide jobs and training opportunities for people at risk of socio-economic exclusion.
