The document outlines the 5 R's approach to achieving zero waste defined by the Zero Waste International Alliance: refuse unnecessary items and use of disposables, reduce consumption and waste production, reuse and repair items to extend their lifespan, recycle materials that can't be refused, reduced, reused or repaired, and allow remaining organic waste to decompose naturally to provide fertilizer. The 5 R's - refuse, reduce, reuse, repair, recycle, rot - provide a goal, guide and design framework for managing waste in a more sustainable way.
