#wechoosereuse – is an international campaign to reduce waste, implement reuse systems and increase recycling at all levels of the product life cycle – from production to disposal.
international campaign #wechoosereuse in UkraineWe are in favor of the transition to circular economy. It is an alternative to the traditional, linear economy model of economic development, based on the restoration and rational consumption of resources, characterized by the creation of new alternative economic approaches, the task of which is to minimize the negative impact of mankind on the environment.
By choosing reusables, we vote to reduce the area of landfills, increase the percentage of recycling of valuable materials and increase environmental awareness in our country.
By choosing glass or metal containers, we minimize the entry of harmful substances into our body. Plastic packaging can contain toxic substances, release microplastics into food, and the contaminated packaging can not be recycled.
By investing once in a set of reusable bags, containers or reusing cans or other containers previously purchased in the supermarket, over time we begin to save on packaging.
We want our voices to be heard, and this is possible only when we express our position: both with a wallet, buying goods and drinks in our reusable cups and containers, and choosing packaging that can be recycled, and when we talk about our eco-practices in social networks and sign petitions.
