Discuss in pairs. What do the words below mean?

Answer

  • Renewable: Renewable refers to a resource or energy source that can be naturally replenished or regenerated over time. Examples of renewable energy sources include solar, wind, hydroelectric, and geothermal energy. These sources are sustainable and have minimal environmental impact compared to non-renewable sources like fossil fuels.
  • Reusable: Reusable refers to an item or product that can be used multiple times or for multiple purposes, rather than being disposed of after a single use. Reusable items are designed to withstand wear and tear and are often made from durable materials such as glass, metal, or certain types of plastic. Examples of reusable products include water bottles, shopping bags, and containers.
  • Recyclable: Recyclable refers to materials or products that can be processed and transformed into new materials or products through recycling. These materials can be collected, sorted, and reprocessed to create new items, reducing the need for raw materials and minimizing waste. Common recyclable materials include paper, cardboard, glass, metal, and certain types of plastics. Recycling helps conserve natural resources, reduce energy consumption, and decrease the amount of waste sent to landfills.
