You've shown such self awareness; taking a look at what is in our landfill and recycling bins can teach us such a lot about those little things we do automatically. I hope the meal planning works for you and can't wait to read some updates! <br /><br />Rae aka mrs green @myzerowaste.comrae-annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07166852642128654920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7696044845243516298.post-34328060697449367022011-09-08T19:34:57.282-04:002011-09-08T19:34:57.282-04:00We´ve been reducing our plastics too and that mean...We´ve been reducing our plastics too and that means a healthier planet and a healthier family. :)<br />As Amy wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.Paula - Buenos Aireshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12601159166382653183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7696044845243516298.post-24234137678135329962011-09-08T19:24:21.502-04:002011-09-08T19:24:21.502-04:00These are fabulous goals and will reduce a lot of ...These are fabulous goals and will reduce a lot of waste. I think you've hit on the key ... planning ahead. When I think back to a time when I bought bottled water and lattes while I was driving, I realize that it wasn't so much that I couldn't make it myself or, as you said, bring a reusable container, it was that I just never planned it. Now I do and the big surprise was how much money I saved by doing it. That has held true with my grocery shopping, as well. These days I make purchases with menus, or at least possible menus, in mind. During the week, I really don't have to stress about what to cook or whether I have the ingredients I need. It's all there and in the back of my mind I already have the menu. That has also saved me money because I don't waste food (buying and then not using) and I don't have to run to the store for one or two things (which always leads to buying seven or eight more things). <br /><br />I hope you'll do an update on your progress. If you're like me then it's more a matter of just creating some new habits. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18323775808390175925noreply@blogger.com
