Reuse that plastic shopping bag as a trash bag for litter, reuse that plastic bottle and use it as a momentary water bottle, use that paper bag as weed barrier in a garden, or even use it as temporary recycling bin or wrap presents with them and personalize everything!! Single use plastic is almost impossible to avoid especially if you spend most of your day out and about. If you do though, try only get what you need at a restaurant and maybe at a coffee shop don't get it to go. Where are you going in such a hurry? Sit for a while, read a book!
You might have one near you, and itβs one of the easiest ways to reduce your waste. If the change seems daunting, start with just one or two products like dishwasher detergent or hand soap. Only about 9% of plastic ever produced has been recycled, and although the corporations responsible for this mess have yet to be held responsible, forming sustainable habits still has a lasting impact!
It's so easy to overlook what is currently in your life especially if you are so used to it. Routine, patterns, and familiarity make things feel so boring yet it provides structure to what would be chaos without. But this structure sometimes overshadows what you have. I have worked the same job most of my adult life, but throughout this time I have moved locations twice. I left the last two places because I felt I outgrew them and I wasn't getting what I needed out of it. I have a lot of trouble adapting to change and the biggest reason is because the good things I had at these times were brought back to my attention because they were no longer in my routine. I know that each time theres a dramatic change in my life, it's more often than not for the better, but I can still miss things from times that were not exactly optimal for me. I wear a ring at all times that says "this too shall pass", this has always been a constant reminder to me that the good, the bad, and the inbetween will never be permanent. Love what you have while yo have it.
Not sure what kind of camera your looking for but I have used this for a couple of years and personally I think it represents scenery amazingly for an affordable digital camera. I have some photos I took on this camera to show you too!
