How to use "Wasting" in context?
What is wasting?
Wasting is the act of discarding or not using something that could be used to save money or increase productivity.
There are two types of wasting: physical and mental. Physical wasting is when we discard unnecessary or inferior items, while mental wasting is when we waste time or energy on unnecessary or unproductive activities.
There are many ways to prevent wasting, both large and small.
One way to prevent physical wasting is to create a storage system where items are organized and easily accessed.
