It really doesn’t matter if it’s a new hot topic, a means of stretching what you have or a return back to the basics, recycling is here to stay; as it should be. The ability to Reduce, Re-use, Recycle, Repurpose or Refuse any item due to its fleeting period of usefulness is not only a conscious decision, but it may also take some training to incorporate these choices into our daily lives. This is exactly what a few of the articles in this month’s Digital Issue of PREPARE Magazine will focus on, but the authors approach this topic uniquely with your preparedness lifestyle in mind.
