271: Focus Friday – Managing Waste

Are you mindful of how much waste you are producing?

We’ve been pretty good about our consumption and how we manage our waste. But… after our recent interview with Sarah Wilson, we realized we had some serious room for improvement.

This week we’re discussing how we currently manage our waste and strategies we plan on implementing in the near future.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Composting solutions
• Making bone broth with veggie scraps
• Food storage in glass
• Reusing bags by washing them out
• Using up every last scrap in the fridge before travelling
• Storing produce properly to extend its life
• Gifting packaged food to friends and family before they expire
• Reusing eco parchment paper
• Bringing a reusable cup to the coffee shop
• Condense garbages to save on bags
• Use what you already have when wrapping gifts
• Find bulk soap and shampoo
• Using cloth napkins
• Being mindful of online and offline purchasing
