Waste
Reduce Single-Use Disposables
Bringing your own bags and containers to the grocery store, and even to restaurants for leftovers, are a couple of ways to reduce your waste. What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?
I use single-use vegetable bags at the grocery store. I can either skip the bag or bring my own mesh ones. I have been using single-use coffee cups sometimes but it has been unsafe to bring reusable cups during COVID times. I try my best to make coffee every morning in a ceramic reusable travel mug.
