Dispose
Upcycling – is about preventing waste by using useful materials from things that already exist. For example, by unraveling an old sweater with a worn out elbow, to make something new and different; a bobble hat and/or gloves. This reduces the consumption of new, raw materials, when creating new products which in turn can result in a reduction of energy usage, air pollution, water pollution and even greenhouse gas emissions.
