Household waste is very diverse and therefore, its optimization possibilities are also equally varied. In the animation below you will learn how to shift household waste towards a more circular approach, especially through a change in user behaviour.

MAIN TAKEAWAYS

• Household waste, because of its diverse nature, offers different opportunities to be optimized.
• Food waste can be reduced through moderate consumption, or it can be used as compost and fertilizer. Broken products can be repaired, or donated so they can be reused.
• Making a household waste flow more circular is again related to a change in people’s behaviour. Awareness in consumption will make users buy long-lasting products or products that can be easily upgraded rather than discarded.
