In our modern world, there is a lot of waste. This waste is polluting our environment, including the soil, the air, and the water. In terms of plastic alone, the world goes through nine billion tons of it, just in single use containers. The Mariana Trench is the deepest place on earth, and plastic has been found there. It has also been found on top of Mount Everest, and a study found that humans even have it in their blood.
Key Takeaways:
- Avoid single-use plastics by purchasing in bulk, and remember that most recyclable containers aren’t actually recycled.
- Using a dishwasher can actually be environmentally friendly, but cooking with gas is not.
- Practicing meal planning and proper food storage will help reduce food waste.
“All this waste is bad for our environment, it’s bad for our health, and it’s also costing us money.”
