Recycling is a well-known idea that refers to reusing waste materials in any way possible. But what about “upcycling”? It’s a new word, even though it’s something that has been going on since human civilisation began. It means reusing waste materials so that they have greater value. Throughout history, people have always done creative things with “trash.” For example, they’ve used straw and dead leaves to make roofs, skin from dead animals to make leather goods, and wood from fallen trees to make boats. So why is there a new word for it now? One answer to this question is that we reuse fewer and fewer things, and so we have become a “throwaway” society. This has raised huge questions about waste: Where can we dump it all? Will it pollute the environment? Could it endanger our health? The evidence is everywhere – even in the Pacific Ocean, where billions of bits of broken plastic float near the surface. Fish eat them, and then we eat the fish. So upcyclers have adopted this new word to focus people’s attention on how waste cannot simply be reused, but be reused profitably. In fact, upcyclers don’t like the idea of waste and prefer to call it an “asset,” something of value. Nowadays, there are lots of organisations that market products with upcycled material. Some artists and designers have upcycled things like denim from old jeans to make rugs, and wood from old houses to make furniture. Others have even used old magazines to make stools, and candy wrappers to make handbags! Sometimes they’ll add a stylish element to their products, such as a beautiful mosaic made with chipped or broken dishes. With an endless supply of “assets,” it seems that upcycling has a great future. (Adapted from Interchange) Question 23. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?
