This Waste Prevention Strategy deals with how we can produce and consume using fewer resources. Products can be designed better from the start so that they are manufactured with fewer resources and substances of concern.  This generates less waste, and once we have finished using the products, we can recycle the materials in the manufacture of new ones. In that way we spend fewer resources.

Developing into a more resource-efficient society requires involvement and close collaboration between all players. The change must be anchored in society and propelled by businesses and individuals. Therefore, we must make it easy for businesses and individuals to make green choices.
