Simple Switch: To Go Boxes

August 9, 2016

This month I’ve decided to highlight how easy it is to switch from Styrofoam, plastic, or other single use to go containers to a reusable container. When I first started reducing my waste, I noticed that food packaging was one of my biggest trash can contributors. But once I started shopping plastic free and as … More Simple Switch: To Go Boxes

Simple Switch: Single Use Cups

July 5, 2016

Recently, I started paying attention when I see overflowing trashcans, and I’ve noticed that a large amount of the trash is single use cups and bottles. While it’s terrible that so many of these single use items are being tossed in the trash, there is some good news. These items can very easily be exchanged … More Simple Switch: Single Use Cups

Simple Switch: Bottled Beverages

June 8, 2016

Bottled beverages are a tricky switch, because while it’s easy to say you should just bring your own bottle and fill it up, it’s not always easy to find what you’d prefer to drink in a refillable form.

Reducing the amount of waste you produce doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, it’s actually simple. It just takes the commitment to switch out one wasteful habit at a time for a more sustainable, and often better looking, alternative. And to prove it, this month’s switch is as easy as slipping a fork into your … More Simple Switch: Plastic Cutlery

Simple Switch: Paper Towels

March 5, 2016

Last month I decided to start showing that going zero waste really just means making a bunch of small switches in your daily routines to produce a little less waste every day. To help illustrate how easy most of these changes can be, I’m going to post an easy alternative to a popular non-zero waste … More Simple Switch: Paper Towels

Simple Switch: Plastic bags

February 3, 2016

Going zero-waste really just means making a bunch of small switches in your daily routines to produce a little less waste every day. The good news is that most of these switches are easy and totally painless! Admittedly, there were changes that I had trouble implementing and some I occasionally still struggle with (*cough* switching … More Simple Switch: Plastic bags
