WHY Softer plastics are not accepted at many recycling plants. Instead, most get discarded. We will reduce plastic waste by choosing hard over soft plastic.
HOW When faced with a choice in products, and all choices come in plastic, we can choose the harder plastic. No plastic is always best, though. Subscriber Gwenyth J. added, "..put soap on a cleaning rag...[it] can then be used to wash many dishes" to yesterday's tip.
Thanks Gwenyth! | |
