  • Thanks Beth, I had actually thought of carrying a chico bag, but realized that my needs didn't warrant it. Since I'd have it in the backpack i realized if I forget a bag but have the backpack I can usually just use that as a bag. I had actually thought of going the stainless steel route as i recognize the irony of using a plastic bowl, but I'm pretty sure most of the folks who have Orikasos because they've seen mine wouldn't be carrying around stainless steel instead. Thnaks for looking.

  • Toilet paper gets used and disposed of as normal. I'm trying to lighten my footprint, but even I draw the line somewhere. Good question though.

  • More great ideas please!!!

  • ...Dave, I hope you are aware with what is in your backpack, you would be a perfect extra to 'Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy'.

  • Great video man!!we need more people out there who care good work...

  • We need more people like you!

    PS: I never ask for plastic bags anywhere. I always have one with me, and that's it.

    One time I even got the takeaway food cheaper because the owner was so impressed :)

  • Dave-

    What an awesome video! Thanks for doing your part to get the word out there. I'm currently taking a course called 'Movement Towards Sustainability'. Our instructor is a big fan of using a "sustainable dining kit". I've been using reusable mugs/H20 bottles for some time and try to encourage others. I love the toothbrush holder!

    Thanks again & keep it up!!!

  • That's awesome! Thanks for posting! Great ideas! I'm going to add the cloth napkin & spork! I already do water bottle & canvas bag. :) Keep up the great work!

  • Technically, it's still not trash - because it goes into the sewer system, not the landfills.

  • this is great! awesome way to show how easy it is to NOT MAKE TRASH and SAVE MONEY -- yeah!!!

  • What a great way to eat and drink at work. Great job!
