Today’s change is for my husband. His works at a casino and OMG they are so wasteful. I won’t get into how much they suck at the green / zero waste department, but… they suck. Anyway, they don’t really allow employees to bring in reusable water bottles and they are forced to use either a … Read more

Today’s change is using matches over lighters. Yes, some lighters can be refillable, but I think matches win out. I have never seen anyone refill a lighter. When they get empty, they’re tossed and a new piece of plastic is bought. Matches are EASY! And you can burn them or compost them when done. Better … Read more

If you’ve already been on the market for something, these deals can save you a lot of money. But other than that these deals entice people to … Read more

Wipes are a serious problem. They’re another disposable item like napkins and paper towels. The only difference is they’re drenched in bacteria-fighting liquid. Cool. But still disposable. Today’s change is giving up wipes. So far I’ve been using rags and soap. But for wiping down areas that I don’t want to be completely soapy, I … Read more

Today’s change is to properly dispose of electrical waste like old computers and cell phones. I just got word that there is a recycling event in April in my town to dispose of all the electrical waste. I also have seen other events in other cities near me. So my plan is to alert my … Read more
