We are only a few short months into our Zero Waste journey, and already I have learned so much.
I think that the initial ‘Declutter’ process really does help develop a deeper awareness for what we purchase and consume, where they come from and where they will end up. We are nowhere near finishing the declutter stage, but once finished, I really won’t want to have to go through it again if possible.
The following products are great in the way that they usually cost less than their less eco-friendly rivals (both in money and impact on the planet) and after their purpose is complete they can go straight into our compost bin – leaving no waste behind!
I’ve loved collating this list, finding so many innovative companies that really want to make a difference.
