Zero Waste intro

The Main things about Zero waste...

a couple weeks ago i decided to change my lifestyle to less waste.
This meant refusing plastic.
Reducing how much i buy (Beauty, Fashion and Food.)
 Reusing old things like clothes.
 Rotting (composting) old food (Banana skin...)
And lastly recycling ALL WAYS LASTLY, use recycling as your 5 option, what happens is it gets downgraded and downgraded until eventually it ends up in landfill or the ocean.


Then another little tip, if you have beauty products sitting in your cupboard or clothes, then always give it away because it will sit in there for about a year then go to reach for it and its gone off or doesn't fit or has holes in it, then it needs to be recycled so give it or donate it!



CLOTHES:
Independent Brands
Using small brands is an amazing way to be more ethical. Big brands is one of leading causes to
pollution, also how there made (especially cheap brands,) is awful.


Organic cotton
Is an amazing sustainable materiel best used for clothing, and a great way to shop ethically.

Really amazing way to be more sustainable when buying clothes. Because you are giving these clothes another life.

Giving clothes and beauty products is a great way to reuse things (Even though your not actually reusing it.)

• Bamboo toothbrushes are an amazing  little environmental switch. No plastic toothbrush will ever leave so switching to bamboo will make the world of differences 
• Carry canvas bags with you everywhere, you never can be to sure. You should also carry water bottle, or what i use is one of those stainless steel thermal bottles, which keeps thing warm and cold so i can carry water in there but if i want like a  costa i have my bottle with me.
• I wanted to wright something on REDUCE. Consume less in all areas manly the main areas which are foods beauty and clothing. Foods reducing is an amazing thing, buy less so if you know you never eat granola don't buy it and don't over buy because as you will see it is a major problem. Having 2-3 body washes isn't the best way to buy, obliviously use them up but you only need 1 of each. Fast fashion and cheap clothes, i did touch on earlier on in the post but yes try and shop as ethically as possible, fast fast has my areas that are bad, i am not going to talk about it today though, as i am not that knowledgable in that area   

Thank you for reading i do have a YouTube channel which i post on once a week as well. I did also make a Video talking about zero waste as well.
