"Closing the loop"

What we need to do in terms of waste management is to stop buying new products such as whenever a new product of computers or television or phones. If it still works, you don't NEED to get it. Speaking about need, people need to learn the difference between the things that are needed for survival, and the things that we want. Especially in today's economy, the things that we want certainly are not needed for us to survive! When people say "closing the loop" in concerning waste management, what is meant is that we need to stop creating and wasting. We need to reduce, reuse, and recycle!
