11.5 Zero Waste Life

I first heard of the zero waste life when I came across an article on my Facebook page a couple of years ago. Although my family and I  recycle in our home, there are a few other adjustments we can make to possibly have a zero waste life. For example, now I use reusable water bottles instead of plastic bottles and use reusable bags rather than plastic bags. Some changes I  can begin to make such as shopping at the Farmers market, learning how to make your own products in our homes such as our lotions and toothpaste. I  really like how detailed the video described how in fact these changes are easy to make and not only does help save the environment and help you save money. It is unfortunate to see where all of our plastics end up, I will begin to personally look at different alternatives that do not have plastic containers or packaging.
