Stack of plastic-free soap bars

Stack of plastic-free soap bars

Almost two billion items of plastic packaging are thrown away in the UK each week. Shampoo, body wash and liquid hand wash add to this plastic pile-up - so switching from bottles to bars is better for the environment.

Most granola is in plastic pouches these days. Choose one in as much paper packaging as possible (if you’re not making your own, that is).

Thank you - yes it is like a milk carton, which like all paper packaging is lined with a film made of plastic. Still, 90% less plastic than a bottle. Since bottles are only recycled at about 5% rate, the math seems better to avoid plastic bottles and choose paper. But you remind us it’s complicated.

One of the few laundry detergent refills in paper packaging. Restock Clean Cult while you can — they are disappearing from many stores sadly. (They are currently on sale now at Amazon.)

Costco currently has both Blueland dishwasher tablets AND toilet cleaner tablets -- both about the half the price per tablet than anywhere else. It's probably a good idea to support this attempt by Costco to offer plastic-free products.

Thanks! I’m not endorsing the quality of these supplements, only the non-bottle package. I appreciate the one you recommend has a compostable bottle—although compostable bottles require industrial composting which is not widely available. But for those with access to it, this is an excellent option.

🟠 Plastic pellets, aka "nurdles," are tiny pieces of plastic. Their impact on birds, waterways, & communities is devastating. Birds often mistake these for food.
