I mostly hang my laundry outside to air dry in the summer, but during the winter I hang them in a corner in my living room. I do use the dryer for bulkier items like towels, sheets, etc. because this allows me to throw all these items together in one wash and dry them together as well. Also, my living room is almost like a patio. It has a glass roof and glass doors, so during the day, I keep the roof uncovered and it works like a greenhouse naturally increasing the temperature of the space. Lastly, I keep the dehumidifier close to the drying rack and you cannot imagine how much faster the clothes dry.

[@TheSimpleEnvironmentalist]

love that you have some flexibility !!

[@Lara-eh7cx]

I love how authentic and real you are! I thought I was the only one doing weird stuff to be sustainable but turns out there's another weirdo saving this planet😂❤ I do stuff like use old socks with holes as a washcloths to wash my bathroom surfaces and use avocados that can't be eaten anymore as hair masks

[@TheSimpleEnvironmentalist]

dude I am so weird about my waste hahahaha I'm here for a weird and lazy zero waste experience, glad you enjoy it!

[@nurieko]

I visited Vietnam a while back and that's how they would flush the toilet. Pouring water in the hole manually, the the same thing the water tank does essentially. It's a good hack if your water tank breaks. Whenever I shower, as I'm waiting for it to warm up to jump in, I leave a bucket underneath to collect the cold water. I use it for my plants.

[@TheSimpleEnvironmentalist]

It's a great hack for sure! That's amazing!

[@jettascorner21]

I do DIY a lot. Last time I bought moisturiser was what? 8 years ago? Flushing the toilet with bath water is so common here in Ghana. Water is a very precious resource so we have no choice but to maximise the water that you do have. I currently do this with my baby's bath water. I use it to hand wash his cloth diapers before they go into the machine so I don't have to do pre-wash and I wash on cold.

[@TheSimpleEnvironmentalist]

Recycling water is the best!

[@juna8089]

Eating at home more often can create less waste, using a reusable water bottle and making sure it's filled before going outside helps. I still drink Starbucks and I always make sure to bring my reusable coffee cup with me so I save 10 cents overtime and save plastic. Use bread ends as bread crumbs or flip it over and make a sandwich out of it. I use my old t shirts as rags to clean my bathroom floors. I save all my spaghetti sauce glass jars and use them as storage containers or water cups if I feel like it. My partner flushes once a day kind of gross cause it can leave a dirty ring near the hole of the toliet I've been trying to do it too since I pee way too much. Thanks for all the great tips. I love your previous videos I'm glad you're still making videos! Last tip join your local "Buy Nothing" group I got an airfryer for free from another member since it was sitting in their garage. You can post stuff to give away or get free stuff from others.

Blankets/sheets: You can also turn them into fabric yarn to crochet/knit/braid into rugs. I also took several of the old blankets, torn pillows and stuffing and a bunch of inherited yarn and turned it into a giant floor pouf for our living room.

JAR TIP: I repurpose jars from food to store loads of things but I thought they were ugly so using acrylic paint I already had, I painted them and then hot glued some of my friends old Disney Tsum Tsums on to the top as she didn’t want them anymore… now I have some ADORABLE Disney themed jars for storing all my bits and pieces and they were FREE!

You can also use the water from your shower, just put a bucket in the shower with you, it doesn't catch all the water but it will catch a lot of it. I lived in Cape Town, South Africa when they had the worst draught in their recorded history so we had we all had to do as much as possible to save and reuse water. I'm glad that you mentioned saving water, it always seems to be forgotten, but it's truly pivotal for life. All Cape Townians have water saving tricks 😉👍.

Another tip, you can use laundry lint as cotton swabs for removing nail polish! Warning for the coconut oil, it may cause breakouts so make sure to patch test. Oil molecules are larger than pores so it can clog pores

[@schmirfle]

Omg thank you! I’ve been wanting to use an alternative for nail polish removal as I can’t really use my reusable cotton pads so thank you x

Also wanted to add that if someone has kids, I save the plastic cup applesauce come in (only bought them a few times, and now I can just buy applesauce in big jars) and when my kids want a snack at home (from the largest container of that snack i can find) I put them in the little cups or applesauce. I also will use them to hold sides and ketchup in my bento lunches in the containers they can fit I . On the same note I buy vegan cream cheese, I remove the labels and they work to hold snacks in lunches, I use them a ton in my kids lunches.

Look around in your neighbourhood on garbage/recycling day for free plastic plant pots, I didn't need any this year, but next year I will. Save seeds from your garden, ask people for cuttings or seeds. Our library has a seed library -- free seeds.

I have done the method of reusing water to flush my toilets before but with dirty mop water when my boyfriend insisted using the disposable mops. I've also tried to collect said mop water from my shower when I took a shower... that was a little challenging but I gave it a try. Something I've been striving to do and I've been learning is repurposing recyclables for things. For example, I will cut the flat part of the side of milk cartons (I buy almond milk in cartons) and use them as mini cutting boards so when I'm in a rush I don't have to break out my big ass cutting board just to chop up an apple or bread or something, and they are quicker to clean.

That’s genius, definitely using that one, I have one large cutting board and one slightly smaller but still large cutting board and I hate washing it after cutting like, one vegetable on it

Good tips.. I am guilty lately of not composting my toilet paper rolls sigh. I plan to get a bucket to put on the porch to put these small items in and take to my compost bin. Something I try to do when theres a good sale.. Classico uses mason jars for their spaghetti sauce and they can be reused for Canning (the bigger jars). So when there is a good price I buy them and reuse the jar for canning. I just canned spicy pickled cauliflower this week using one of those jars. When one of my canning jars gets a chip in it it's no longer safe for canning but perfect for storing dry food items in such as pasta noodles.. I take spaghetti noodles break them in half and put in my jars ( I am super proactive about not leaving food out for mice to get in to or any other pest). Anna In Ohio

I want to mention, goodwill does take fabric scraps and destroyed clothing for recycling as well. They bulk sell it to other countries that reuse it for items in less regulated markets. If you live in a hot climate you can use the sun to make your yogurt. I do this in Arizona. Also who doesn't save their jars? The only ones I've had to buy at goodwill were the huge mason jars (sometimes you just need 20oz of storage).

[@TheSimpleEnvironmentalist]

This is super problematic and I want to dive into it in the future. But making your own yogurt, how cool!

Thanks for the video! I'm going to try cider vinegar next time I core apples. :) But regarding jars, I do occasionally have to purchase new canning jars. For storage, I reuse jars. But around this time of year, I can a lot of jellies, jams, salsas, and pickles to give as gifts and store to use throughout the year. If I can find canning jars at the thrift store, I scoop them up, but always need to be careful that they don't have any cracks or chips around the rim that could make for a poor seal when canning. Just a caveat, depending on what people are using their jars for.

[@kathryncooper4001]

I separate trash from recycling every week before putting the bins out for pickup. Kitchen trash, of course, will go out as is, but my chairside waste paper basket and the bathroom trash warrant a few minutes of sorting. It's then that I cut off the clean backs pf envelopes to use as scratch paper. Save a few trees, save a little collection-truck diesel fuel and pollution, never buy scratch pads again. I'm old, so am not willing to sit down in the tub anymore (because getting back up is not a given at this stage in life!), so I collect the shower water in a bucket under the spigot while waiting for it to heat up. No sense letting a perfectly good resource go down the drain. I use it for flushing, a habit I developed 45 years ago during a massive Northern California drought.

I don't reuse my bath water, but when I take a bath, I stay a looonnngggg time, to make sure I did not use this water for nothing. Since I work from home and am all alone all day, I flush every other time when I go to the bathroom. I also use corn starch as dry shampoo. We keep all the peanut butter jars, to store food, and ice cream plastic containers, to store our compost. I dump kitty litter in an old plastic container and empty it in the trash once a week, instead of using a plastic bag every day. I can't use a single moisturizer or coconut oil on my skin, since it's sensitive and doesn't react well to some ingredients, but I buy the biggest bottles and fill small silicone tubes for hand cream, instead of buying small sizes to carry with me. That's about it! 🤪
