As I transition to a no waste or reduced waste lifestyle I have been collecting resources to aid me. There is so much to learn I am glad I gave myself a lot of time and space to transition because I am discovering it is HUGE!

Everything is wrapped in plastic. EVERYTHING!

And then I’m wondering how to shift my waste system so I can recycle as much as I can – including soft plastics when I buy them.

And did you know that cliff bar wrappers cannot be recycled unless you send them to a specific recycling firm that up-cycles foil lined bar wrappers? Yup.

Here’s some resources I’ve found helpful + notes for myself.
