Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle, which is also known as 3R, have many effects in one’s country or community. It can make the community grow better and lessen the garbage in the surroundings. The researchers undergo this research to assess the effects of 3R in the community.

The respondents of the study were 50 Grade 12 Accountancy, Business, and Management students that were selected through convenience sampling. Based on the results of the study, promoting 3R was an effective practice to improve waste management and promote the following.

Students may use their ability to do some unique ways such as creating new products by using recyclable material dry crafts.
