[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking for ideas, especially when it comes to eliminating plastic in the kitchen. [/quote] If you can afford it, shop the more boutique-y (maybe that's not the right word) places that don't use a lot of plastics. HIVE, online has some good options. Opt for glass. Super old school, I know, but you can recycle that easily and has a better chance than plastics. Reusable straws (or ditch altogether); reusable water bottles, etc. Switch to things like "Earth's Breeze" instead of buying the big jugs of detergent. Basically, it comes down to putting in the small effort to find and choose those products. And it all helps. But, until manufacturers stop using plastics in their products -and they should be responsible for addressing that, imo- the problem isn't going away on a real scale. [/quote]
