Reduce Single-Use Items
To reduce waste, opt for reusable items such as water bottles, shopping bags, and containers. Avoid single-use plastics and choose products with minimal packaging.
Separate and Recycle Materials
Set up a recycling system at home to separate materials like paper, plastic, glass, and metal. Check with your local recycling facility to ensure you're recycling correctly.
Compost Organic Waste
Start a compost bin for food scraps and yard waste. Composting reduces methane emissions from landfills and creates nutrient-rich soil for gardening.
Choose Reusable Products
Invest in reusable products like cloth napkins, beeswax wraps, and silicone food storage bags. These alternatives reduce the need for disposable items and minimize waste.
