15. Reuse: Use your gadgets for longer. The upgrade to a new
electronic item should ideally happen for necessity, not style. If
you’re okay to use second-hand electronics, do so.
Reduce or reduction of resources of any type, as reduction in
use will lead to availability for more product manufacturing and
more for use. Here the reduction can be termed as activity to
minimize the use of resources by integration of technologies in
production of the product also. The integration of systems will lead
to higher efficiency and lessening of transmission loss which will
improve efficiency of product and at same time will increase life
span of product. The reduction of use of resources is vey well
applicable in reduction of wastes also

16. Recycling: It can be material or thermal recycling depending on
the product type and resources and component and constituent we
are considering. The main strategy is for the items which cannot be
reused as resource. The items which are discarded but have re-
utility can be put to recycling and once again they give rise to
development or birth of resource.
