I AM IMPERFECT. The journey to living a zero waste lifestyle isn't going to be perfect and it won't happen overnight. You will fail at it some days. I fail at it some days. Don't beat yourself up over the process. It's an imperfect process of progress!... It is an imperfect journey but it is a necessary one for the sake of our planet and all who call it home. Consider ways that you can reduce your waste and commit to at least one change. It's not always convenient and it's not always easy...but it is necessary. Yes there are people who have set the bar really high who can fit all of the garbage they produce in a year into one tiny jar (amazing!!), but you and I may not be at that point yet. That doesn't mean that we can't make a difference. Let's each try and get as close to zero waste as we can, where we are, with what we've got. One change will lead to another. I started by refusing to use plastic wrap and now I look at zero waste checklists and can identify dozens of changes that we have made....but it started with one change. #wastelesswednesday #wasteless #lesswaste #journeytozerowaste #journeytowasteless #reducewaste #livesustainably #sustainableliving #imperfectprocessofprogress #makeachange #makeadifference #zerowastehome #zerowasteliving #lowwasteliving #twig #timewasteisgone #naturalliving #greenliving #ecofriendly #ecowarrior

DID YOU KNOW COTTON SWABS ARE ONE OF THE MOST COMMON PLASTIC WASTE ITEMS FOUND IN BEACH CLEANUPS? Every year, millions of cotton swabs are found in nature and bring harm to marine life especially. Making the switch to a compostable cotton swab like these can have a great impact! These swabs are made of natural bamboo and soft cotton and are 100% compostable. Each box contains 400 swabs and you will find that they are sturdier than plastic or cardboard ones.... The packaging is also recyclable or compostable. Bamboo cultivation is done without using pesticides or insecticides and bamboo forests absorb 25% more CO2 than a regular mixed forest. Only $5 for a box of 400! https://thetwig.ca/product/bamboo-cotton-swabs/ #compostableswabs #cottonswabs #plasticfree #plasticfreeliving #bamboo #naturalliving #canadiancompanies #leavenotracebehind #plasticfreedom #journeytozerowaste #lowwasteliving #reducewaste #lesswaste #simpleswaps #plasticpollutionsolution #ecowarrior #planetfriendly #earthfriendly #singleuseplasticsucks
