Garbage.

So all this vegan talk and how healthy it is for my body is great and all, but by just not eating meat or dairy products, is that all I'm doing? I'm going to list all of the things I typically use and throw out in a day, including this I must use (ie toilet paper) and things I don't have to use! Then I'm going to go through it and see what is essential and what could be changed to either preserve, or eliminate wasted materials!

What I've come up with is pretty substantial! I use cotton balls to take off my makeup, when I could use a cloth or rag, I take long showers, I use lots of toilet paper, paper napkins, paper towel, with the exception of toilet paper I could completely eliminate those! Our great grandparents were great preservers because they understood the value that reusing can hold! Our generation basically just buy new! We can't even Wash our floors without using a swiffer and a swiffer pad and swiffer solution, and when that swiffer gets old and dusty we buy new ones!


(it's hardly "green" if in order to use it you have to buy four other products that can't be reused :P)

We eat food and throw away left overs, we unwrap food and throwaway excessive packaging! Bah!

So... The list goes on a mighty bit... And it's not good.

I'm going to promise to make an effort to stop wasting and to start thinking of creative ways to preserve and reuse, ultimately leading up to sustainability!
