Reduce, reuse and recycle (R3) - the three essential components of environmental R3 is sometimes

called the waste hierarchy. Here's how that hierarchy might apply to computers:

The concept behind the first R, reduce, is that you should limit the number of purchases that you make

in the first place.

The concept behind the second R, reuse, is that you should reuse items as much as possible before

replacing them.

The concept behind the third R, recycle, is that you should ensure that items or their components are

put to some new purpose as much as possible.

Sometimes a fourth R is added to the three basic ones, generally standing for either "rethink" or

"recover." Rethink is sometimes added to the front of the hierarchy, meaning that we should consider

our options and think about their impact on the environment. Recover, which is the last R, refers to the

practice of putting waste products to use.

Recycling is the reprocessing of materials into new products.
