madisongreencornerIf you are serious about reducing garbage, here are some very useful tips:

1.  Use reusable lunch bag or box.
2.  When you make a purchase, don’t take bag unless you need one.
3.  Use cloth napkins instead of paper napkins.
4.  Use a sponge or cloth instead of paper towels.
5.  Use reusable plastic containers for food instead of plastic bags.
6.  Use rechargeable batteries instead of disposable ones.
7.  Read books, magazines, and newspapers at library.
8.  Use plates, cups, and utensils that can be washed.
9.  Purchase juice and detergent in concentrate when possible.
10.  Avoid buying foods in single serving packages.

Remember that everything we do whether big or small contributes to reducing garbage, recycling and saving the planet.
