Today, man has become a big consumer like he was not years ago. This feeds the driving force of producers, who, along with productivity, also increase waste.
Remember that the more you use, the more garbage you have. People often buy things they don't need, and in most cases they don't use them, so they throw them away.
Packaging is everywhere - from food packaging to headphone packaging for your mobile device. They all go to the dump.
How to reduce harmful garbage
1. Use products that can be used over and over again. For example, cloth napkins, towels, chemicals with removable fillers. Give up the use of straws.
2. Buy more durable goods so as to reduce the need to replace them. In this way you can reduce waste.
3. Buy products with less packaging on them or shop in bulk to make the most of the product packaging.
4. Take advantage of donated items instead of buying new ones.
5. Reuse. Reduce the need for purchases by using what you already have. For example - use the bottles you have so you don't buy new ones. Like the jars - fill them instead of buying boxes every time.
Not only will you reduce garbage, you will also save money. If you have leftover plastic bags, do not stock up on new ones once you can use them again. Remember that such an envelope takes 1000 years to decompose, which makes it virtually non-degradable.
6. If you like the design, you can make things so that they can be used for other purposes. This will save a lot of raw material. And you can make sure that the product is used again after its initial use.
7. When choosing products, look for products that do not contain harmful waste, to be more confident that even if you throw them away, you will not do much harm to the environment. Example: Use matches instead of lighters. Instead of a plastic bag, choose a paper one, and it is best to go to the market with fabric bags.
