That Origami Paper Glasses Case Doe

The traditional three R`s are Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and now the new trend which is upcycling! Reduce is the reduction of using too many materials that will result in waste like for example buying products with less packaging. Reuse is to well reuse what you already have such as refilling a water bottle instead of getting a new one! Recycle means taking trash and converting it into a previous form(such converting water bottles into plastic that can be used to produce something else) that can be used again. Cities usually collect bottles and cans to transform it into other products such as furniture. Upcycling is the new process in which you take different items you might not use anymore and put it into a new use instead of getting rid of it. An example would be taking a old water bottle and making it into a water can! Upcycling and recycling might sound alike but recycling is turning the item into its original form( water bottles into plastic), while upcycling takes one or more items together to make it into a different item.
