Reducing your trash

Tweet

In recent years, I've come across more and more posts/videos/articles about zero waste. I think it's a great idea, but actually going zero waste seems basically impossible to me. Nevertheless, it has made me more conscious of what I buy and what I use at home. I do try to keep my trash to a minimum for the most part. I avoid buying items that are unnecessarily wrapped in plastic, I bring my own bags to stores, I don't use those plastic bags for vegetables or fruits, and I drink tap water. These are just some examples of what I do. It's pretty basic, and I do more than just this, but I think if everyone were to keep these small changes in mind, there would be a lot less garbage in the world. Are you aware of your trash? What are some of the things that you do to help the planet?
