Reusing, recycling and upcycling of goods are important for waste prevention and the reduction of the usage of raw materials. Furthermore, the trend towards the sharing economy, minimalism instead of materialism and urban mining, are positive lifestyles that are gaining in popularity and significance in urban settings.
