Be a Detective
Many people like the idea of reusing but they often don't know where to begin. Be a detective and identify all the things you use that are usually thrown away. Make a list of these items and figure out ways you can switch them for something else that can be reused.
Some hints to get you started:
Instead of Using | Use This |
---|---|
Paper Cups | Reusable Cups |
Paper Towels | Cloth Towels, Sponges and Rags |
Paper Napkins | Cloth Napkins |
Plastic Bottles | Bottles made from Metal or Glass |
Grocery Bags | Reusable Cloth Bags |
Writing Paper | Reuse Other Side |
Sandwich Bags | Reusable Containers |
