Source reduction appears at the top of the (waste) hierarchy because it avoids environmental harms throughout a material’s life cycle, from supply chain and use to recycling and waste disposal. Source reduction encourages the use of innovative construction strategies, such as prefabrication and designing to dimensional construction materials, thereby minimizing material cutoffs and inefficiencies.
