July 31 at 6:46 PMThis is the easiest way to reduce plastic consumption. The hard part is remembering to grab the bags from your trunk.
-
July 31 at 6:45 PMI'm realizing that it's next to impossible to cook a meal with zero single use plastic unless you grow the food yourself or buy directly from a farmer. Even if you buy some fresh veggies at the grocery store and skip the plastic bags in the produce section and at the cash register, it still probably came to the store in a big plastic bag. And...

July 31 at 6:38 PMThanks everyone!! What a great month it's been and I am really happy to be part of Team BioPark.

July 31 at 6:37 PMI use reusable shopping bags regularly. I challenged myself to ditch single use bags completely this month. I was about 94% on target. II faltered a few times and found myself loading items into the basket and placing them into the car, nilly-willy style. Canned goods really roll around on the floor boards of the car....a lot. The few times...

July 31 at 6:32 PMMost employers keep the bottom line in the forefront of their daily operational activities. Reusable dishes in the work place can help reduce overhead by minimizing the cost of single use utensils and dishes on a reoccurring basis.

July 31 at 6:30 PMI didn't travel anywhere in July, but this is normally what we do anyway. It's easy to do and usually ends up being healthier than the alternative because the snacks aren't full of salt and grease like your typical gas station junk food.

July 31 at 6:26 PMIt's the eating out that really adds up. We try to get takeout from places that use minimal packaging (i.e. wrapping a sandwich in paper rather than in styrofoam box which is also nice because it doesn't get as soggy). I knew I would score better than most Americans, but I was surprised by how little plastics are used on average in India....
-
July 31 at 6:20 PMI look at my action of picking up beyond my property fence as a duty to my neighborhood and as an example. I have been approached by neighbors that have thanked me for picking up trash, saying that they need to do the same. Lead by example and the connection is stronger.
-
July 31 at 6:18 PMI believe the market has created the illusion of need for disposals and the consumers have responded. Steel razors do not take more time from your day nor do they cost more. There are several companies that will mail razors to your door on a schedule for about the same cost as disposables. Marketing is powerful.
