About 33% of what we throw away is packaging. Today's post is related to my post from Day 10 of this challenge and a common theme from various posts.
When you are storing food, don't use ziploc, cling-wrap or aluminum foil to pack away your leftovers. Use reusable containers or any container that you already have (I re-use yogurt pots and empty jars).
Not only will this save you money in the long run, but it will help you reduce your waste, and, thus, your carbon footprint! Remember, all that plastic wrap that you throw away today will still be in the landfill when you are old and grey (and long after as well)!
