I believe that as well as thinking about the earth when we shop.... we also need to think about 'what do we already have in our home that could be converted into what we need right now? and how can we do that?
For many of us, I bet there are items in our homes that we can use for bags and containers. Why should we throw away items into the landfills just so we can go BUY a "better" container to help us? For exmple, you can take an old t-shirt, add some stitches and straps, and turn it into a bag. No company producing or shipping a bag to send you... saves energy, manufacturing costs and chemicals, etc, shipping, fuel, etc.
This is inspiring. Thank you!
