Happy zero waste holiday! From decorations to the menu to seasonal gifts, here are some solutions for anyone and everyone who wants to make their end-of-year festivities a little more eco-friendly. And you could even save some hard-earned pennies.
to zero packagingIf your budget for gifts is tight this year, that’s all the more reason to think about giving a new lease of life to old or unwanted objects, whether it’s a reconditioned smartphone, restored toys or vintage clothing from a secondhand website. Plus, wherever possible, try to buy products that use minimal packaging, especially when shopping directly in stores. When shopping online, packaging materials (tissue paper, brown paper, etc) can be kept and reused for wrapping gifts.
