How was the reaction? I had not much reaction, but will not give up.

My sharing has gone well.  Most thank me for sharing and let me know that they have learned a lot.

Great idea.

Super idea, This is motivation to do more in this direction, Why not searching for one thing you both can do together??

Just see that you are vegan, Susan. Hope I have not hurt your feelings, was not my intention😔. I know that a lot of vegans cook fresh food, but there are also a lot of plastic items in the shelf at the supermarkets. 🥰

Thank you for responding Claudia.  I eat a lot of salads and veggies.  Although I do rely on veggie burgers for protein; they come in a box and have less packaging than raw meat.  I gradually reduced what I ate. Never ate pork products.  Started with no meat, followed by poultry and lastly fish. Once I got there I replaced dairy with almond milk, soy cheese and other vegan options.

Fully agree. During this challenge I saw a lot of movies and photos of birds with stomach full of plastic. It is awful what we as humans are doing to other creatures. We are going vegan to avoid that we harm animals but buy a lot of processed vegan food wrapped in plastic.

Hemp is an amazing product.  It grows like a weed and needs less pesticides than cotton.  However, it is related to Marijuana.  It still is not a good excuse.

In Europe you can already buy shirts etc from Hemp. I have never tried it, but is on my list now. Hemp is a wonderful plant, grows fast as bamboo and you can use the whole plant. Our ancestors made their clothes from it, why can't we??

Please let me know next year how you did it. I have the feeling I will never reach Zero waste.

Just  starting and will let you know how it goes.
