Since the house isn't mine and I can't make any changes to it or the stuff that is already in it, I'll be focusing on the things that are only ours (mine and my daughter's).
The Goals:
1. I will REFUSE all that I can that will end up as waste in my home.
2. I will REUSE what I can until I can find a more suitable sustainable alternative.
3. Paper will be used as scratch or as feed for my worms (when I get them).
4. Unused or old clothes will be remade into something I can use or will be given away or sold.
5. Books that I have will stay (at least for now). The closest public library is quite ancient and not very comfortable to spend time in. I'll have to check out other public libraries, too.
6. Plastic that can be recycled will be given or sold to a friend whose family owns a packaging company.
7. I will borrow items needed for short term use. A purchase will occur only as a last choice.
There are my goals for now. I may add more as I start living a life aimed at zero waste.
I'll post weekly updates on my progress.
What are your goals? What other goals would you add to my list?
