• composting scraps

Composting scraps represents recycling to reduce waste because it involves taking organic waste materials, such as leftover plant-based scraps, and converting them into nutrient-rich compost that can be used to fertilize the garden. This process helps to divert waste from landfills and reduce the need for chemical fertilizers.
