Simple Tips to LIve a Zero Waste Lifestyle!
Zero Waste may sound like a massive burden when it comes to not being able to buy your every day need like Ziploc bags, laundry detergent, and toothpaste. Here are some tips, tricks, and hacks that will change the way you live your Zero Waste Life!
- Firstly, as easy as it may sound when going to a restaurant or dining out you should always refuse a straw, if you must use a straw many sources suggest that you but your own reusable straw whether it is from Amazon your you local grocery straw.
- When doing takeaways and food deliveries, make a note that you won’t be needing plastic cutlery. Homegrown food delivery company foodpanda, which replaced plastic bags with brown paper bags in 2015, has gone a step further and launched an opt-in function for plastic cutlery in a bid to reduce consumption of plastic cutlery by 30 percent this year.
- Get into the habit of carrying a reusable water bottle. On a general basis, you should try to bring a water bottle that can be refilled during the day.
- Make your own snacks. Instead of buying pre-packaged and overly-processed chips and sweets, bake your own muffins, cakes, and biscuits, and air-fry your own kale or potato chips.
- Switch to glass products. Buy things that come in glass, rather than plastic. Reuse glass jars for storage in the kitchen, for drinking, or even to bring to the wet market to store purchases of beans or meat. Glass, when cleaned and properly disposed, is 100% recyclable and melted down to make new glass.
