𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲1. 𝘽𝙪𝙡𝙠 𝙂𝙤𝙤𝙙𝙨 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙐𝙇𝙏𝙄𝙈𝘼𝙏𝙀 𝙀𝙘𝙤 𝙛𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙡𝙮 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙨Consider buying staples in bulk and storing them in reusable containers like mason jars or cloth bags. To save even more ask on your local whatsapp groups who orders bulk food stuffs or start or join a bulk food buying club. 2. 𝙉𝙊 𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝘽𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚𝙨Approximately 40% of bottled water sold is actually tap water. Invest in a quality water filter and a reusable water bottle. While you’re at it, grab a thermos for your coffee or tea on the go.3. 𝙄𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙄𝙣 𝙖 𝙎𝙚𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝘾𝙡𝙤𝙩𝙝 𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙚 𝘽𝙖𝙜𝙨Don't ask for the flimsy plastic bags they offer in the supermarkets. Invest in (and remembering to bring) a set of cloth produce bags will protect your purchases and prevent more plastic from ending up in the ocean.4. 𝘼𝙫𝙤𝙞𝙙 𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙒𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙣 𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘Most supermarkets go heavy on the clingwrap, even those that naturally have "biodegradable" packaging. Which brings us to our next tip. 5. 𝙎𝙪𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙇𝙤𝙘𝙖𝙡 𝙁𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙧The food will be fresher, tastier, more sustainable, and way more nutritious. Besides, by supporting local farmers you put money back into your local economy. Alternatively, you can sign up for a local food delivery service. 𝑳𝒐𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝒇𝒐𝒐𝒅 𝒅𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑮𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑹𝒐𝒖𝒕𝒆 𝒂𝒓𝒆 Welgeluksalig Boerdery 𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕𝒔𝑨𝒑𝒑 𝒎𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂𝒈𝒆 0795675258𝒉𝒕𝒕𝒑𝒔://𝒘𝒘𝒘.𝒇𝒂𝒄𝒆𝒃𝒐𝒐𝒌.𝒄𝒐𝒎/𝒘𝒆𝒍𝒈𝒆𝒍𝒖𝒌𝒔𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒈6. 𝘼𝙫𝙤𝙞𝙙 𝙎𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙚-𝙐𝙨𝙚 𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨Plastic cutlery, straws, plates, and cups clog our landfills and can be very damaging to aquatic life. 7. 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙁𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙎𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙨The waste humans produce is made up of yard waste and food scraps, which can be composted instead. By diverting that waste away from the dump we can shrink the size of landfills and reduce methane production, a volatile greenhouse gas and major contributor to global warming. Getting started is easy. You can create your own compost heap. www.botanicgardens.org/blog/start-backyard-compost-bin8. 𝘿𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙚𝙖 𝘽𝙖𝙜𝙨Most tea bags are loaded with micro plastics that are bad for you and the environment. But have no fear: loose-leaf tea is here! Pick up an in-mug strainer or a set of reusable cloth tea bags and you’ll be on your way to a delicious, sustainable brew in no time! Heatherhill Herbs sell amazing looseleaf teas at Wild Oats Market Sedgefield 9. 𝙂𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙐𝙥 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝘾𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙩Buy exclusively from sustainable clothing brands or hit up your local thrift or consignment shop. Often, you'll find unique, gently worn (or even brand new) garments at a fraction of the original price. And while you’re there, donate that pair of jeans you haven't been able to squeeze into in 10 years. As Marie Kondo says, "To truly cherish the things that are important to you, you must first discard those that have outlived their purpose."10. 𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙣 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙈𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙨Meal planning can really help to streamline your grocery trips, trim food costs, and reduce waste by ensuring that you'll use everything you purchase. #reducewaste #savouroceans #plasticfreeoceans #buylocal #buylocalsupportlocal #supportlocalfarmers #composting
