It may not be easy to lower our consumption, but there is no reason not to "reuse" and "recycle". Once we're done with that, it's time to "reduce"! Like myself, i eat a lot of meat (fish, chicken) and i'm trying to switch to more vegetable, as it takes a lot less resources to grow. I love your website. It may not be easy at first, but if we all change one small thing after visiting your website, it's one step closer to victory! Great tips, i totally agree with you.

I always find it annoying as well, it's a shame some places aren't set up to recycle certain products. My parents have to remove the windows from windowed envelopes! Broken furniture is a problem my garage is having at the moment... Hi Chantal. I always find it annoying as well, it’s a shame some places aren’t set up to recycle certain products.
