Comhairle nan Eilean Siar is part of the Zero Waste Scotland Campaign, promoting the 3 Rs - Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Many people focus on the Recycle message but Reduce and Reuse are more important in the minimisation of waste. Reduce waste by avoiding over packaged items, repair broken goods and refuse un- necessary bags at shops. Reuse containers, furniture and clothes and give unwanted items to charity. Use re- chargeable batteries and avoid disposable items such as razors, paper plates and nappies. Recycle cans, glass, paper and plastics. Failte gu Leodhais agus
