The great thing about the holidays is that you can make many great dishes with wonderful fruits and vegetables. The trick may be to keep the produce you buy fresh until you are ready to use it. The folks at ReusableBags.com have a solution. It’s called the Reusable Produce Bag Set.
There are three items in this set to help you enjoy fresh produce for much longer.
How can your bottle be more earth-friendly? Well, if you’re using plastic bottles, even recycling them still leaves a footprint. Why not get an earth-friendly thermo bottle to keep your cold drinks cold and your hot drinks hot?
The great thing about the SIGG Thermo Bottles is that they are eco-friendly, meaning completely reusable & 100% recyclable. They are also Bisphenol A (BPA)-free. A quick Google search about BPA will bring you into the debate about its safety and use in numerous items.
You can buy these bottles and know exactly what is keeping your drinks hot or cold for up to eight hours at ReusableBags.com.
If you’re making an effort to use fewer disposable items, you will probably find yourself taking baby steps. You can look around your house and start to find ways to eliminate items that are harmful the environment. From plastic grocery bags to garbage bags to sandwich and snack bags, there are many opportunities to less disposable non-biodegradable plastic.
The plastic sandwich and snack bags are convenient, but they can and should be replaced. Snacks can fit into non-disposable plastic containers, and sanwiches can fit in the Wrap-N-Mat®. Look how easily the Wrap-N-Mat® folds over your sandwich to protect it until you’re ready to enjoy it.
In addition to carrying your sandwich, the Wrap-N-Mat® also serves as a convenient placemat. Because the Wrap-N-Mat® is made with a food safe, PEVA liner that wipes clean, it cleans up easily and is ready to be used again the next day.
How often are you in a hurry and buy something quick to eat? If you’re like me, it can be pretty often. I like my fair share of take-out food, and usually at the bottom of the plastic bag is more plastic. Plastic forks, spoons, sporks and knives kept together in a plastic wrapping.
Sure, you could bring your own silverware around with you, but that is not terribly convenient. You might be able to find your fork tucked in the back of your glove compartent, but the spoon could have fallen back behind the compartment. That doesn’t seem too sanitary to me.
A much better option is a nice carrycase made out of recycled plastic to hold your utensils made out of bamboo. Why bamboo?
I’m trading in my silverware wrapped in a paper towel with this handy carrycase from the earth-friendly people at ReusableBags.com.
Now that Halloween is behind us, it’s time to start looking ahead to Christmas, Chanukah, and Kwanza. Of course there’s Thanksgiving in there, too.
You may have childhood memories of gift wrap covering the floor, once you’ve opened all of your gifts. Chances are, the gift wrap ended up in the garbage. It may not have been a thought before, but think of all that waste and the impact it has on the planet. There is an alternative.
If you give gifts in reusable gift bags, you can feel good about decreasing your footprint. You can also feel good about knowing where the bags originate and the environment in which they are made.
“Each bag is handmade in Lowell, Massachusetts, a historic textile town home to a vast immigrant community. The bags are manufactured in a factory that supports much of the community & operates in accordance to the Fair Labor Association’s Code of Conduct. The factory has very good working conditions, pays fair wages, encourages secondary education through sponsorships & and many entry-level stitchers and sewers move into managerial positions through their “promote from within” philosophy. ”
I found these great bags at ReusableBags.com. They are reasonably priced, and you won’t be throwing away your money.
