Correct Answer: Waste management


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Waste management

The concept of "reduce, reuse, recycle" is a guiding principle for managing waste in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner. It encourages individuals, businesses, and communities to minimize the generation of waste and maximize the utilization of resources.
"Reduce" emphasizes the importance of reducing the amount of waste generated by avoiding unnecessary consumption, making conscious choices to minimize packaging, and opting for durable and long-lasting products.
"Reuse" promotes finding alternative uses for products or materials to extend their lifespan, such as repurposing items, using refillable containers, or donating unwanted items to others who can use them.
"Recycle" involves the processing of waste materials into new products or raw materials through various recycling processes. Recycling helps conserve resources, reduce energy consumption, and minimize the amount of waste sent to landfills or incinerators.

While conservation of energy, water, and land are important environmental considerations, the concept of "reduce, reuse, recycle" specifically addresses waste management and the efficient use of resources.
