By doing so, we reduce the need for fresh raw materials and cut down on waste. Recycling old electronics,for instance, can help us recover precious metals like copper and gold.\nCradle- to- cradle design: The entire lifecycle of designing products is involved and it ensures that every material can be safely turned into new products or returned to the environment.The goal is to create an ecosystem where nothing is wasted and everything has a purpose. \nZero-Waste Initiatives:Elimination of waste altogether is the strategy being worked towards.
