Answer:

Reduce means slowing your consumption or buying less.

Reusing means rather than throwing out items like clothing or food jars, consumers can find new uses for them -- and thereby reduce their consumption of new resources.

Recycling means to extract valuable materials from items that might otherwise be considered trash and turns them into new products.

Reduce, Recycle, and Reuse are also called the three Rs.
