This is my pet subject. I’ve coined the term “antiplastician” to describe myself. Re-usable bags, stainless steel straws, re-fillable water bottle, mason jars for food storage, buying loose veg at the farmer’s market, bamboo toothbrush, homemade toothpaste (yes, it’s possible, and seems to work better than the horribly expensive stuff in a tube,) buying condiments in a jar or not at all, shampoo bar, soap packaged in cardboard and paper, homemade cleaning products (work just as well and cheaper in many cases.) This is what I do, but I’ve been doing this a while. The big problem though, the REALLY big problem, is beverages and just about all foodstuffs. The next time any of you go to the grocery, just try to really see the plastic that’s packaging almost everything except for a few loose fruit and vegetables and the odd box (which is probably plastic lined.) PLASTIC IS FOREVER.
