Recycling practices are insufficient to address urgent global warming problems, and may even be used to justify our high-consumption lifestyles. Indeed, it still generates emissions, consumes energy, water, and material and do not promote reduce in packaging. In this regard, it is worthwhile to turn our solutions towards a higher level of the circular economy: reusing.
