What are the three Rs of sustainability?

The three Rs of sustainability (Option C) are Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle, which form the foundation of waste reduction and environmental conservation.

Why Option C is Correct?

Reduce: Minimizing resource use to decrease environmental impact.

Reuse: Repurposing items instead of discarding them.

Recycle: Processing waste into new products to prevent landfill accumulation.

IFMA’s Environmental Stewardship & Sustainability competency stresses waste reduction and sustainable facility operations as a critical FM responsibility.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect?

Option A (Reduce, remove, and replace): This does not align with sustainability principles.

Option B (Reduce, reuse, and repurpose): Repurposing is similar to reusing, but recycling is the correct third element.
