A Zero Waste Life - Anita Vandyke

It's more Zero Waste life in 30 steps than days, many of the things are quite interesting. I would argue that perhaps if you have space you should put some of your stuff away and limit the things you can use until you run out and then shop your stores. Yes, get rid of those things you don't like or are wrong for you but consider that instead of binning similar items keep them until you need them. I keep meaning to make a list of those things I have and reminding myself to check first.

Some of the advice is reiterating advice I've seen elsewhere but honestly I couldn't see anyone really with a regular job doing all these things within 30 days. In some places finding how to do the steps (like organic vegetable delivery for example) might take you longer than a day. Bulk buying is complicated for me. I'm coeliac and anywhere with loose flour is a danger, people are not careful enough about cross contamination, it's an unholy nightmare for me.

It did make me think, I do need to get some supplies to make it work but I haven't seen several of the supplies around.

I did write down the how-to of removing stickers from bottles and sterilising beauty containers. I also copied the recipes for cleansing oil; face moisturiser; body and face scrub; bath salts, body moisturiser; deodorant and cleaners. Which I hope to implement once I run out of what I have in the house.

It's worth reading at least once to spark some ideas.
