The six Rs

The Six Rs

Reduce- Reducing the amount of raw materials we use will improve sustainability. designers and manufactures sould aim to use fewer materials and components.
Refuse- Rufusing to accept extra packaging can make a diffrence, as can refusing to accept that the easiest way of diposing of products is always the best way.
Re-Use- Reusing products is important because they require very little processing and there for have less impact upon environment than products form raw materials.
Repair- Thing about whether it is always a good idea to buy a new product.
Recycle- Many materials can be recycled, and recycling symbols on products and packaging informs the the consumers how to dipose of them and how they should be processed.
Rethink- Perhaps it is time for a radical reappraisal of the way we buy and dispose of product
Sustainability

Non-Renewable resources

Designers and manufacturers have to use a range of materials from non-renewable resources. This means that the raw materials, such as oil, ores and minerials, are taken from sources that will eventually run out. They are natural resources that have been producted over thousands of years.

Renewable resources

If we are to make our natural resources last longer, we must aim to use a greater quantity of renewable resources in our products. This will both help to protect our environment and will also help to safeguard the supply of products and services. For example many timber products now carry FSC (forest stewardship council) Logo, which reassures the customer that the timber supply is from renewable,managed forest. Using such logos allows the consumer to make informed choices.
