#Repost @wastefreegreenwich with @get_repost ・・・ Our waste practices have a direct impact on the health of environmental justice communities. Reducing trash output = less incineration = less air pollution = more justice for low-income communities of color #environmentaljustice #stopincinerators #betterway #dosomething #wheelabrator #reduce #reuse #recycle

#Repost @zerowastecalifornia with @get_repost ・・・ Plastic Free July Day 28 // Packaging! So far, for Plastic Free July 2020, we have gone pretty easy. And by that, I mean that hopefully these daily swap suggestions were doable, possible, affordable, and accessible to everyone. Today's suggestion is probably one of the hardest plastic-free swaps that I struggle with both at home and at work: packaging. THE hardest swap? Well, I'm saving that doozy for Day 31. The plastic nuisance isn't just limited to the package itself, but includes any plastic materials that go into the packaging to insulate or protect the item. From bubble wrap, to bubble mailers, to saran wrap, to those inflated plastic air pillows Amazon stuffs into boxes. It's a plastic nightmare. However, there is a company called Ridwell.com offers FREE pickup of plastic Prime shipping envelopes, poly-bags and air pillows which they then recycle into plastic "bricks" for constructing things like decks. Problem: Ridwell doesn't pick up in my area. Bummer. And even if you're not getting Amazon deliveries to your home anymore, and high-five to you if that's true, there's a good chance your work still does. What then? Before COVID, there were certain (not all) UPS stores that would take and reuse bubble wrap and air pillows for shipments. Once a week, a friend and I would drive a big bag of bubble wrap from the animal shelter to UPS. I hope this starts up again soon. REUSE I know there's a bit of a stigma with reusing plastic, even though it's reusing! Maybe it's the guilt we feel from having obtained it in the first place. Get over it! The worst thing we can do at this point is take a perfectly functional plastic bubble mailer and toss it into the garbage. Reuse it! Reseal it with paper tape and try to see how many times you and your LDPP (long distance pen pal) can send the same packaging back and forth. Make it a challenge.
