2012 Review: Our environment, wise use of resources – important story themes
TerraCycle Include USA
Cloth diapering has become popular these days, but cloth toilet paper may be where some people draw the line.
Not Christena Little.
Little decided to transition her lifestyle to “zero-waste” nearly a year ago, and hasn’t looked back since.
One exception Little noted was that her family doesn’t drink cow’s milk, so she still buys almond milk that comes in a container that is only recycled in a few places.
However, Little mentioned www.terracycle.com, which lists collection “brigades” that accept items like this. The specific brigade will send you a box to mail them the items and they either make a new product out of the item or find another use for it.
While Little admits that she and her family are still working towards becoming as waste-free as possible, she is working to hopefully “get there someday,” she said.
