(43,242 posts)1. I've reduced my waste a bit
I buy margarine and butter in paper wrappers with cardboard boxes. At least the waste is combustible.
I rarely buy liquids in plastic. Powdered milk for example.
Ice cream is the best - cardboard containers.
The amount of trash is unimaginable. Hard to believe we're not even reusing glass in some instances.
