Whether at
home or work, we all produce garbage. This garbage must be removed for health,
hygiene, and overall organization. However, that doesn’t mean those same items
need to be thrown in the trash. Remember, our landfills are not limitless
places, and most of us could take great strides for reducing our waste.
Take The Recycling To The Next Level:-
So we all
know that paper, plastic, and glass can be recycled, but that’s certainly not
all. From the hazardous materials we all have in our homes, such as batteries
and motor oil—to the sometimes unexpected recyclables, such as old and broken
laptops, cell phones and other electronics. For much of what you throw away,
there is likely someone who can recycle, repurposes, or reuses your unwanted
items. A quick web search will alert you to businesses, organizations, and
artists in need of items you would normally throw away. In fact, “up cycling”
is one of the fastest and quickest growing trends in both art and furniture
design.
Reducing The Waste By Planning Ahead:-
Another key
to reducing waste is in planning ahead. Much of what we throw away can simply
be avoided, a few quick tips include:
•Keep
reusable grocery bags in your car, or instead of throwing paper or plastic
shopping bags away—find a way to repurpose them first.
•Go as
paperless as possible and everything from your monthly bills to much of what you
print at home or work can be transitioned to electronic.
•Use the
backside of paper as scratch paper and just make sure that it does not contain
sensitive information that should instead be shredded.
•Plan out
your recipes for the week and by selecting ingredients that can create many
meals, you can reduce food waste.
•Buy in
bulk, and invest in refillable and/or reusable products. This will reduce your
packaging and overall product waste. Not only that, but you may be surprised at
your options in reusable and refillable products!
