Life-Hacks/ small things for less waste in daily life
Our rubbish destroys the planet, thatβs clear. Everywhere you go, you can find plastic bottles, packaging and other rubbish from us, the people. Consequently itΒ΄s our turn and responsibility to change something. We have to reduce our rubbish generally and, in the nature, prevent more ill animals. The tiniest things can become dangerous, so the tiniest changes from our side are important.
There are a lot of small things you can do to reduce your waste in your daily life. To avoid packaging, especially the plastic ones, is very helpful. At your next trip to the supermarket try to buy products with as little plastic packaging as possible and bring a reusable shopping bag or basket with you. For example, yogurt in glass jars or sweets without many layers of plastic. Moreover, you can buy your fruits and vegetables in a cotton bag, not a plastic one. Another helpful hack is to avoid products in smaller packaging, big sizes are better and often cheaper. In big sizes there is less packaging for more product but it only makes sense when you need all the product.

If there are alternatives with natural or recyclable material, for example paper folders or a bamboo toothbrush, use these. Furthermore, metal or glass straws are better, they are reusable. For less plastic bottles, use reusable bottles (glass, metal or hard plastic). If possible, use the tap water from home so you donβt have to buy water in bottles. Additionally, use reusable coffee mugs for your drinks, when you are out and about. Many shops fill your mugs with your drink. If you want, shop in special unpacked stores, farm shops or on the market. Often, they are organic, use less packaging and sometimes they put your shopping in for example cans, that you brought with you.
In the end, even the smallest things can make a difference, so itΒ΄s worth trying to live more environmentally friendly with the help of these hacks.
