Upcycling : "The practice of taking something that is disposable and transforming it into something of greater use and value. This reduces the consumption of new raw materials when creating new products. Reducing the use of new raw materials can result in a reduction of energy usage, air pollution, water pollution and even greenhouse gas emissions."
