Hint: All of us at some point of time have come across the discussion about how our mother earth is degrading day by day. This method of reuse is to help save the environment. It is one healthy habit that each of us should indulge into.

Complete answer –
Somewhere deep-down all of us realize that all of us have contributed to the degradation of our mother earth. So, to cause a little less harm the idea of 3 R’s was given. Remember – Reuse, reduce and recycle.
Recycling means to take the trash or the material that was otherwise to be thrown and process it into a different material that could be used again. This for example could be seen in the case of rough notebooks, the ones with black paper. That comes into the category of recycling.
Reduce means to use only that quantity of the product that is required. For example in a buffet take only that amount of food that you will be able to finish. This will save the food for the person who needs it.
Now, comes reuse, the word itself tells us that it means using a product or material again and again till it becomes a waste. For example – you can take a polybag with you while buying things from the market. So, the polybag gets reused and a new one is not wasted.

From the above discussion we have understood that option (A) is our right answer.

Note –
Product or a material can be used again in a creative way too.
Using the 3 R’s in our daily life will help us to save our mother earth for a longer time.
These things not only make our survival better but also helps us to sustain difficult times.
