Recycling is perhaps the most underrated of the three Rs. We talk about it alright, but in practice, it's limited to junking plastic into the green bin. There's much more we can do. Besides recycling paper, plastic, aluminium/other metals and glass, we can also actively consume recycled material. There are now plenty of retail outlets in the UAE selling such products at often the same and even reduced rates compared to non-recycled stuff.
And finally, let's add 'refuse' to the list. Let's actively refuse stuff that we can see would have taken a toll on the environment. It isn't enough to just say no to plastic bags at the grocery counter, let's refuse and reject harmful detergents or cleaners that do not come with eco-friendly signage. When accepting delivery of things purchased online, let's make sure we let the delivery person and their firms know if the packaging is superfluous. Let's refuse single-use plastic like straws, spoons and cutlery if it accompanies our delivered food. And then let's not just stop there. Let's repurpose and rethink our way out of the environmental hazard we find ourselves in.
