Waste free in the new year!

Take the #wastefree challenge this year!
I don't usually like to start the New Year out with a cleanse (nor should you). If you're the same, and looking for suggestions for a different goal that is extremely significant for the environment?? 🌍

May I suggest Waste Free shopping? 🛒

This is something that I started this current year and really want to get more involved and diligent about❗

DID YOU KNOW⁉️
We use 100 billion plastic bags per year (only 1% being properly recycled).. That's 12 million barrels of oil to make those... Meanwhile, it's being estimated that by 2050 there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish 🐟

HOW TO START⁉️
I started with not buying paper towels anymore and using cloth wipes. It takes getting used to but honestly has reduced trash probably the most.
Next I stopped using produce bags all together. I loathe those little bags..
I then tried to get rid of plastic baggies in the home... This one was difficult. I would use beeswax sheets to wrap cheese in or eco bags from @mindbodygreen for snacks and sandwiches (love their boxes Btw if you're looking for a place to start slowly!!). I still use bags... And hate ever time I do. I gotta get more eco bags.

OTHER IDEAS:
Bring your own bags (they're cheap! Stock up)
Refuse the receipt (no plastic no BPA)
Bring mason jars or heck, old pillow cases to put bulk or produce in!

I encourage you to be more conscientious about plastic use and start with ONE replacement. That's it!
