Survey Question:

"How do you apply the 3Rs in your life?"

Key Takeaways

In Germany, applying the 3Rs isn’t about slogans, it’s a set of practiced habits. Reuse (46.2%) edges out recycling (45.5%) as the top choice, a nod to the country’s long-standing secondhand culture and circular economy focus. Waste reduction and composting follow, both backed by widespread municipal infrastructure and education. Buying products made from recycled materials (33.9%) and efforts to save natural resources (31.7%) round out the mid-tier, suggesting that many Germans take a product lifecycle view even if they don’t explicitly connect it to the 3R concept.
