The term "zero waste" refers to a way of living that aims to reduce the amount of waste that we produce and then send to landfill. When we talk about "zero waste," we're talking about taking responsibility for our own rubbish, and not throwing anything away unless it's recyclable or compostable. Zero Waste also includes extending the life of products as much as possible before recycling or composting them.

To live a zero waste lifestyle it is important to be mindful of your consumption habits. You can do this by using reusable items such as metal water bottles or glass jars for takeaways. It’s also worth noting that compostable items are better than single-use plastics because they break down into nutrient-rich soil for plants to grow in.

Zero waste living doesn't have to involve an extreme change in your life but there are some simple changes you can make which will help reduce your impact on the environment. You can learn more about zero waste here.
