Lacey Kean yeah but u can’t use your plastic cups as often as a glass or a bottle you bought in the store and all in all I think the amount of waste she produced in one day was too much also there are so many ways to reduce that and i’m really shocked after seeing that

[@golden2977]

That's so funny, because here we have bottle recycle machines in most stores. 1 bottle usually equals 0.15 dollars, so you're reusing your bottles, but also getting paid. Such a great system tbh!

[@kaylawaters2691]

Or cups for cold drinks too. I have some 30 ounce stainless steel cups that were only $10. One is always filled and refilled with free ice water, one with juice or tea. No need to buy plastic cups and bottles of water and juice. Stainless steel this time of year will keep your beverage cold a long time, even overnight. As long as they are clean (washed beforehand), most restaurants and coffee shops will allow you to put water or your drink in it also.

If there's too much food on it, it cannot be recycled. That's why you wash your Taco Bell cups before recycle and don't recycle pizza boxes even though they are cardboard. You can also chuck aluminum aerosol cans like air fresheners, hairspray, and shaving cream in the recycling bin. It's also helpful to check with the company that takes your recycling. They usually have guidelines.

[@jameshicksgaming4929]

Ms neither I used to drink about 8 water bottles of plastic a day

[@nancydrew2020]

@@BlakRainbow39 my local recycling company doesn't take aerosols cans and any other plastic besides 1 and 2. Taco bell and most other fast food cups are number 5, so I can't recycle those. It's better to just use a reusable cup, some people give me strange looks but they usually fill it for me. Always check your local recycling company's guidelines.

[@Furiends]

It depends. Technically you don't for glass and metal but many recyclers just expect that anyway and reject the dirty stuff. But to give you an idea of how clean most plastics need to be to recycle. Plastic WATER bottles go through three cleaning cycles before being turned into resin beads. Any food packaging or condiment bottle isn't going to recycle unless you washing it completely.

[@theycallthewind3038]

AAL she actually said it’s “mostly for”, not only for white/rich/privileged - so she’s aware that there are POCs that are rich and privileged as well. In general though, her perspective isn’t too far off base. Considering food deserts mainly are located in communities of color, zero waste isn’t an option for many non-white people. They don’t even have access to grocery stores, produce, clean water. So they don’t have the option to buy bulk items, avoid plastic, etc.

One thing I've heard said a lot is that it would be better if a lot of people did "zero waste" or "low waste" imperfectly rather than just a few people doing "zero waste" perfectly. Lots of people making small changes and constant effort is better. I'm not always good about bringing reusable bags to the grocery store (I need to get better about that), but one thing I've gotten very good at is bringing my lunch to work in all reusable containers (glass food containers, mason jars, and beeswax wrappers). I always bring a cloth napkin (which is now my preference over disposable) and my own cutlery. I also bring a metal beverage container that holds my hot coffee in the morning, but then I rinse out with soap and water and use for ice water for the rest of the day so I don't have to use disposable cups at work. The ticket in the video reminded me of a week recently when I had to commute by train a lot, and I used their app for the first time so I didn't have to fiddle with paper tickets... I'm not realizing that that's also zero/low waste! :)

My city has a 7 step waste program so most people here strive to be as trash free as possible. In fact each house is only allowed (i think) 6 trash bags in a 2 week period. The rest is divided up into compost, cardboard, newspapers, recycling, house hold special waste (chemicals, batteries, paint, leftover motor oil etc) which is taken to a special depot, electronics which are taken to another depot, wood and large items such as appliances and furniture. Its really easy to be consciously trash free!

Ok if my office had that many refillable food/drink options and waste disposal options I'd never have to worry it would be hella easy to be low waste!!!!?

[@virginiafranzen9016]

My family now carries a cloth bag full of our reusable hot and cold drink cups. Oh and our reusable straws too!! We say no thank you to straws and always get weird looks. Lol!!

sis lost me when she said that being 0 waste is for the "white, the rich and the privileged" 💀💀💀💀 it's about helping the damn planet not race

peachiplum being environmentally aware is typically only seen in developed country’s and places with better education . In many Poor country’s its not even a topic.

[@ellacarson8005]

I understand your dismay, but I think that a very crucial aspect of the zero waste movement is that because it is not widespread at the moment, access to bulk food stores and the ability to reach the areas where these food stores are located very much depends on socioeconomic status. That might not always be demarcated by race, but in America we cannot divide the zero waste movement from the economic oppression so often faced by people of color. We do share this planet, and it should be a greater priority for each of us to consider, however it is also crucial to consider first the pressing situations of poverty. Bless up 🙏

[@josefineschedin1016]

Yes thank you

[@bethweathers952]

Agreed.

Can we just talk about her BTS shirt for a minute like 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@rebeccajalilov2244]

I love to see that people are interested in zero waste. People come from very different backgrounds ( including culture/ race, etc). I am Hispanic and in my family, when I grew up- recycling has never been a topic or a concern. So, now that I'm an adult ( lol, "adult"), and zero waste awareness is more out there- I find myself trying to make better choices for our earth. I'm not perfect at it yet, but I know I'm trying. Thanks, girls for doing this video!

Love the zero waste push but can I also say I’m obsessed with her gorgeous pink crop top look 👏🏼💕
