怎样才能减少个人产生的垃圾?
First up, swap single-use plastics for reusable alternatives.

Next, opt for second-hand clothing or swap clothes with friends.

Instead of driving your own car, walk or use public transportation.
第四,不开车,步行或乘坐公共交通。
Finally, repurpose items that would otherwise end up in the trash. Old jars can become plant pots.
