THREE SIMPLE ZERO WASTE IDEAS TO IMPLEMENT AT HOME


  • Don’t let food go to waste – eat leftovers, compost scraps, buy only the ingredients that you need and practice cooking appropriate portions 

  • Choose zero waste bathroom and body products such as naked bars of soap and bamboo toothbrushes and make your own skincare products 
 
  • Instead of throwing away unwanted items, give them away to family and friends, repurpose them or donate them to second hand shops

THREE SIMPLE ZERO WASTE IDEAS TO IMPLEMENT WHEN SHOPPING


  • Take reusable shopping bags with you so that you don’t have to buy plastic ones and leave a stash in your car so that you never forget 

  • Choose to buy items with zero packaging, minimal packaging or packaging that can be recycled. Of course, package free is always best! 

  • Change the places you shop and opt for local farmers markets, bulk food stores and local butchers and bakeries instead of supermarkets
