Question

Albert wants to practice conservation. He has decided to examine his lifestyle in order to identify areas in which he can reduce the resources he consumes, reuse resources he already has, and recycle resources that he cannot reuse. In which of the following ways can Albert best reuse the resources he currently has?

Answer 1

clean empty food jars, and use them to organize small tools in his garage

Answer 2

A) Use paper grocery bags as gift wrap

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer options:

A) Use paper grocery bags as gift wrap

B) Ride a bike to work instead of taking his car

C) Subscribe to a daily rather than a weekly newspaper

D) Use an organic rather than synthetic fertilizer in his garden

All of the options above are great ways to take care of the environment and illustrate ways that people, especially those that are interested in conservation, should practice. However, as Albert has decided to start with reducing his patterns of consumption, reusing, and recycling, the correct option should be A. because he would be recycling material that otherwise wouldn't use or would throw away.

On the other hand, if the question enables you to select multiple answers, option C) would be appropriate in the reduction of resources and D) in a case where Albert learns how to create his own organic fertilizer using his organic waste.
