I’ve have actually forced my parents todo a few zero waste things too I’m 13 btw and we live in Ohio where pretty much nothing is zero waste so you have definitely influenced us and thank you so much #zerowaste 😊
You are truly inspiring. Your comment made my day. Lots if love from South Africa.
Wow!!! ❤
At 13??? That's actually incredible
That’s great! Make sure that you do research on every product you swap though because sometimes they’re more harm than good
Please share the things you’ve done and the tips you’ve learnt! I’d love to cut down on at least 50% of my waste this year or next year! Every and any tip would help me out. ^^
Grateful you are humbly influencing others on these eco friendly alternatives + minimalism. It’s one of the important things the western world really needs right now.
Not a kitchen swap, but my safety razor has saved me SO much money. Bought a rockwell for $15 and an assorted pack of 100 (!) blades for $12, verses a pack of fancy venus razor blades are like $6 a blade. Plus as someone who deals with a lot of ingrown hairs and skin irritation, the single blade of the safety razor has been so much better on my skin!
YAAAASSSSS! Love to hear this
Reusable napkins, glass storage containers, laundry balls, using baking soda as deodorant are at the top for me! I’m not zero waste but I’m low waste. I’m having a baby in a couple weeks (my third) and this time I’m doing reusable diapers. Wish me luck 🍀
Growing my own food, composting, make own cleaning products, bulk dry goods
i wanna grow my own food so bad, unfortunately can't do it outside due to an hoa and can't do it inside due to my cat ;-;
Dish towels from the thrift and lots of beautiful cloth napkins instead of paper napkins.
I LOVE finding hand embroidered hand towels, pillow cases and funky cloth napkins at thrift stores.
Not charging phones etc overnight!! Wastes loads of electricity! I never need 100% battery anyway so I just charge it when I need it and always remember to turn it off and unplug once I've got all I need! Xx
I would say most households in Europe do have those zero waste things at home ! I am pretty happy to see that I lived zero waste in the kitchen without even really noticing 😅
Love every time I see your plants in the background 💚…. Can you please make a video of your plant collection?????😃🪴
I recently got some of my old cloths re-spun thanks to one of your videos I saw of you doing it! They’re actually really nice, and it’s just like paying for a new set of cloths! And a great way to eliminate waste!
Ive always been looking for ways I can be more sustainable to help keep this beautiful earth beautiful! I love that you're teaching me, and many others how to do this!
Egg carton seed starters. Dollar tree bar mop rags for drying hands and no eating out
I'm so glad I found your channel. I've been able to finally make so many good changes in my home. Thanks for keeping it realistic and able to obtain!
I reuse all jars l get from the supermarket, 😊❤
They are also really good to use with those tea light candles
I wash my face with cloth pads. They've lasted 2+ years now! Also, for periods, I use cloth bamboo pads. Fantastic.
Not sure if this has saved me the most money out of my changes but i switched to those cotton dryer balls and haven't bought those single use dryer sheets in years now! Also i stopped getting rashes from some of my clothes which im guessing was from the stuff that was on the dryer sheets
Your clothes get dry faster with the balls so you can do a shorter dryer cycle and use less energy as well!! If you ever get static it's from over drying.
Definitely my soap bars I wash my hand so often that every 2 weeks I was buying new soap! But I switched to a soap bar and split it in half and it has lasted me so long!
Have you tried solid bath products? I'm a huge fan of solid shave, shampoo, conditioner and lotion bars.
@@daniellemartin9896 no but I will definitely add that to my cart I buy hair products every month that would save so much money! Thx 😊
I got my mum to switch from laundry detergent and pods(that stuck and ruined my clothes) to laundry sheets! Really proud of that. Not a lot but still something yk? 16 year old fan here ❤
This is the first time that I see something like this. I see tons of videos of people restocking products that yes, look good on the shelves and fridge but are harmful for all the empty calories and preservatives they have, products that are packed individually resulting in many more plastic and money waste.
Thank you for this kind of content, you and your home not only look amazing but also are friendly with our planet. I'm definitely making changes starting today.
I absolutely love your account. It makes me feel like I can implement things like this and start helping.
I save all my containers food comes in for tupperwear! So many old salsa jars full of leftovers go home with my friends! ❤
I started to make my own laundry and dish washer tablet :)
Giant Tiger 5 pack dish cloths. I also use the unbleached (brown) paper towels for non-liquid spills like frying oil, then it goes right in the green bin
Definitely washable pads and period cups! Game changers, money savers! I haven't bought any in two years!
Yes! Rags instead of paper towels; using glass jars for food storage; and silicone baking mats--no need to grease them, and I never seem to burn things anymore 😊
Diva cup! No more tampons or pads in my house! Plus going to zero waste stores
Just curious, where do you buy your clothing? I’m in the market for better quality and things that last! But it’s been difficult with all this fast fashion.
I love my reusable food bags and glass jars from sauces!
I haven’t purchased paper towels in about 5 years.
Thanks for your inspiration 💚
Love these videos! I dont think i have the money to get a lot of these items atm but its definitly something i wanna work towards
Awesome!
Paper towels for sure. We purchased two sets of “in paper towels” from a small business nearly two years ago and between them and kitchen wash cloths (from Target admittedly) we haven’t missed paper towels one day. We also have more storage space for our glass storage containers.
Where did you get your lids for reused jars?
Yes where
I got a bentgo box instead of plastic bags for school lunches
Using natural loofahs and sea sponges for bathing instead of plastic loofahs. Plan on using wooden brushes and sea sponges for washing dishes as well.
Lots of people are mentioning dryer balls, and I want to remind everyone to clean lint out of their dryers! Dryer balls are amazing, and we can improve the situation even more! Deep cleaning the dryer prevents house fires, reduces allergens, keeps your clothes in better shape, and allows your dryer to work more efficiently (less electricity). I love when ethical and economical line up 😊
Period panties is my fave swap! Also recently got a laundry dryer hall. Just beginning a low waste journey 🤗. When I use up my sponges I’ll probably switch to the bamboo brushes, although I do reuse my sponges a lot!
I’ll usually cut up old clothes mostly my pants(since they wear out faster) when they start getting holes and use it as dish rags.
Pleeeease make a video about clothes, where you buy them, what you wear, anything! I'd love that
What are the glass food containers you're using?
I love reusing jars to drink out of. Or to store things in. 😅 I have also saved couple plastic containers for food storage because why not?
The hard part is convincing someone who is frugal. Some see the long term benefits, others just see the price tag.
Buying a gallon of organic witch hazel from mountain rose herbs and pouring into an amber glass spray bottle. I reuse the gallon jug for other things. No mor 16 Oz. single use witch hazel bottles.
The biggest money saving sustainability tip I learned was just how to store produce properly so I’m not throwing away half of what I buy when it spoils too fast 😅
I buy hand soap at a farmers market
I’ve been nagging my parents about zero waste swaps for about 3 years now and we’re still not perfect but we have definitely reduced our plastic waste by a lot :) so if you’re a kid then it’s still possible to switch to zero waste.
I swapped to reusable cotton pads for my periods! Been doing it for 6 years and never regretted it.
Coincidentally I had many many wash cloths given to me by a relative. I don’t buy paper towels anymore either. I just use the cloths I designated for the kitchen until I gotta wash them.
Where is the soap dish and soap rack from or is it one whole dish?
Your cat is adorable 😭❤️
That’s the issue. Taking care of things.
Using rags is my whole personality right now
*Hey !* Just discovered your channel. =D Love & appreciate your content.
I was unconsciously always planning on living a zero-waste lifestyle once I care for myself, as well ^_______^
Your videos helped me learn about the recourses we all got And gave me motivation & even excitement for this goal and life destination & changes I'm able to make a habit out of, now and in the future sense ofc.
You seem like a loving person ! All the best to you ❤ (=
i’ve been using a steel water bottle for 6 years and i never buy plastic water bottles anymore- ever. my water bottle comes with me everywhere. most places that serve drinks will fill it for you too if you ask nicely :). other than that, i love my bamboo makeup removing rounds! and i just made the swap to washable reusable cotton “paper towels” for the kitchen! 😊
I don’t have Autism but I have adhd and I agree on the overhead lights. I just hate artificial lights and prefer natural sunlight
I love that the majority of this is the reason I am called cheap 😂
Where did you get your containers from!
what do you think about beeswax wraps? do you use them? 🤗
Where did you get the wooden bowls and plates from?
ur such an inspirationn
This is truly going to sound silly, but i remembered i can just attach an old dish cloth to our swiffer sweeper to help pick up all the pet hair. It took me a long time to just do that instead of using the sweeper pads you throw out
The jars as cups is awesome! But what about the lid?
No paper towels. Home canning soup and beans. I get ingredients in bulk and the jars are 100% reusable. Tge cost is half or less of store bought.
I'm just starting my journey and I have a teenager so sure I won't be perfect but I have swapped to dish soap bar , shampoo bar , forever razor like yours and deodorant paste . X
In our house we have been doing these things for ages. Cloth rags, glass boxes, soap bars. We don't really label anything but genuinely it has always been like this growing up🤷🏾♀️
So so good!!!
Where did you get the lids for the spaghetti jars to make them drinking glasses? ***Anyone can feel free to answer***
How do u wipe after you use the bathroom
What about cleaning up oils? I like rags, but use paper towels for oil.
Use paper towels for things like that. Use the resuable one for small messes or just cleaning.
I would buy a bamboo toothbrush, but I don’t have the coordination/skills to brush my teeth properly. I need to use a electric one, but I do plan on going zero waste in everything else.
Making bone broth
Homemade flavored popcorn
Homemade shortbread cookies
Not eating out
Keeping my house at 60 in winter and 78-80 in summer
Second hand clothes for kids
Selling crap I don’t use
Bottles for water
Those $1 for 5 gallons of filtered water stations
No more paper towels
Showering 1-2 times a week
Now I just need to figure out how to make homemade booze
Oh I also cut my own hair as well as the kids.
have u tried the beeswax cling wraps?
How do you sanitize a wooden dish brush?
Have you tried bees wax wraps?
Dryer balls🙌🙌🙌
Sustainability VHEMT. Save money also VHEMT. It's fun for the whole fa.... um It's fun for you 😊
Just discovered your channel today and so glad I did!
Btw has anyone noticed how beautiful her eyes are?
Where do u get soap bar from??
What do you use instead of tissues?
Question: Does have a car included in not being zero waste or do you ride the bus everywhere?
Hey!
I noticed healthy matters to you and I wanted to mention anthotoxins from fungus, which apparently are present in 99% of peanut samples world wide due to silo storage moisture.
Apparently, it is an issue that leads to cancer and toxicity in the body.
I don't know if organic peanut butter is different...but I thought I'd share.
Im having a tough time eating peanut butter right now.
I may just mentally swipe it left, tbh, I don't know if I can handle another "restriction" on a whole food.
😢
How often do you wash your rags? I don't want to have gross rags but don't want to waste water?
blueland
Umm … idk about the bar soap as dish detergent you got me there …
It's a solid dish soap, not regular body soap. It's specifically formulated for dish washing. Just like solid shampoo or conditioner bars are specifically formulated to perform their designated purposes. I wouldn't wash my hand with dish soap or body soap, so I wouldn't wash my dishes with shampoo
I wanna know if there is a way to make liquid dish soap from the dish soap bar ? Similar to how I make 5 gal liquid laundry soap from one laundry soap bar
Hi! Can you share where you got your bottle brush from? I have one and it’s super flimsy and bends a lot when using it. I’d love something a little more structured like yours! ❤
Lol just kidding - I found it!
I chose to be child free. I'm pretty much in the clear now. 😂
Any sustainable recommendations for when you’re sick? I am so sick and tired of buying things like TheraFlu and NyQuil and plastic bottles. They’re already jampacked full of chemicals that are not good for you, but on top of that they’re packaged in plastic and they end up going to waste because you never use the whole thing. Please help I’m fighting a terrible cold.
I put some pepper in my mouth, kills the bacteria
Where did you get the dish soap from? I have tried different ones and they leave a residue
My company makes it :) loveofearthco.com/products/dish-soap-block-lemon-scented?_pos=1&_sid=2fcd4f626&_ss=r&variant=40386743435349
& something to remember if that the soap bars are much more concentrated than liquid soaps. So less soap should = no residue 💚
@@loveofearthcothanks ❤
“Breaking cracking” hmm sounds like glass 💀
I know you’re vegan but can you still use the paper towels for things like patting meat ?
YTA
ur containers have a blue and green plastic on them
If you go through a brush every 8 months that’s not zero waste is it?
Allmatters cup
This might just be me being German...but don't americans reuses regular ziplock bags until they break?
I do but I live in the rural America so all do it in the country it's how we grew up but city people do not so they by those over priced reusable bags that you really don't get much of. It's like two different worlds in US lol.
I stopped using fabric softener, which is bad for the environment, your clothes and your washing machine. I use citric acid now, which is a multi-purpouse product, very usefull all around the house.
But those glass containers have plastic on them..
So.
Reusable menstrual products
What out skin care?
why does that soap look moldy?
