  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste
    Bringing your own bags and containers to the grocery store, and even to restaurants for leftovers, are a couple of ways to reduce your waste. What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?

    vegetebal bags... I am thinking about a solution for this with my kids and have not responded yet. Because you can buy recicled bags in the grossery, but there will ba a time when you will need plastic bag... sho how do you really replace these bags?
