Unless you live on a farm, make all your own products and don't travel, you can never be fully "zero waste." It's more about doing your part, reducing your waste where you can, and not giving large companies (the biggest polluters in society) a reason to continue churning out single-use items! Good luck!

I was angry when the small community where I live stopped offering recycling! Also there is no farmers market, & the few close- by stores offer limited vegan foods. Haven't met a vegetarian much less a vegan since I moved here a year ago. No reason to give up of course! Ammenities such as recycling, farmers markets, & vegan centric stores would just make life easier in these pandemic times.

The Zero-waste term actually originated for corporations producing the least amount of waste possible (down to zero) by doing things behind the scenes that produced less waste. Only recently that shift was made onto consumers of products instead of corporations. I agree with Jenny though, zero-waste sounds pretty cool and it catches more people's attention. The sad part is the forefront of the movement is "the jar" which is super intimidating. Fortunately people who really care look more into the movement realize it's not just the jar it's so many other aspects.

I'm not zero waste by any means, but I've found a lot of ways to implement small things that if everyone did as well, we would have a much larger impact. I swapped my toothbrush to a charcoal bamboo toothbrush and love it, I use a cotton shower loofa that can be washed, I use a metal safety razer, I have used a reusable stainless water bottle from Tervis for years and love it, and most recently I switched to garbage bags made from sugar cane plastic. It still isn't great for the environment and sugar cane requires a lot of water, however, it is better than fossil fuel based plastic.

8:41 Just to let you know, the carton for the block of tofu _can_ be recycled (just check for the little recyclable triangle sign) but they will NOT take it in if it is contaminated with the little flimsy bit of plastic on the top cover layer. This is because something is only recyclable when it contains only *one* type of material and not mixed with other materials such as soft plastic, aluminium, etc. Same for glass jars surrounded by a strip of plastic. So in actuality, takeaway coffee cups that are lined with plastic on the inside is not recyclable and neither are food packages lined with the shiny inner layer of plastic. So maybe next time, you could go that extra mile and strip the box of its plastic and wash out the contents before placing it into the bin to be recycled. Thanks :))))

This is a great, very informative video, and I really like that it's all about the small, easy decisions that can be made to cut down on what waste is produced. It also feels like a strangely appropriate time to be discussing this, as making these kinds of small choices now when decreasing waste is both more difficult but also arguably more important will probably make it easier when the world goes back to normal at long last. After all, if the changes are something you can make in spite of the difficulties of quarantine, then it should be even easier when it finally ends, and more options become available, or larger changes easier to make.

So, yeah..it doesnt feel the same..and i totally get it with the job..use to have that career for a company. But, I do love the earth friendly containers idea! thats a great idea. But at the same time..going out to eat is a luxury not a need. BUT I could be wrong on that..but thats just my thoughts. Maybe If people talked about this more, and mention it to the companys more.they would actually do something you know?

Here in Australia we can recycle plastic coated cardboard (coffee cups, uht cartons), and take soft plastic to the grocery store to be recycled. The bags at the store cost a few cents, which doesn't seem to make people think twice. If they cost a dollar, they might think twice and end up bringing their own bags or using a box. Wish we had a Tare store here, though.

1) West Coast people: WINCO also does bulk; some items are in plastic due to pandemic but most things are still in bulk and you can bring your clean jars to use. 2) So much of this is how people shopped prior to 1950s!

Yeah, umm, my 2020 new years resolution was to make changes in my life to go towards low waste/zero waste. No one informed me that we were going to have a pandemic, so just as I'm starting to get comfortable taking my jars to the bulk store, the bulk store stops allowing me to bring jars, and the store that sells all the lovely hygene/household cleaners shuts down their bulk section because plague. Bad year to start this. It wasn't entirely fruitless, we have made several changes, but it was not the progress I was hoping for. I just have to do what I can, and recognise that these are extraordinary times.
