One way I've been able to (slightly) reduce waste is by buying jars of toothpaste rather than buying it in plastic tubes. Glass jars can be re-used or recycled.

Where do you get it? I've never seen jars of toothpaste before, though I haven't been looking.

Zero Waste

Being "zero waste" means that we adopt steps towards reducing personal waste and minimizing our environmental impact.

Our community places a major focus on the 5 R's: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. We practice this by reducing consumption, choosing reusable goods, recycling, composting, and helping each other improve.

We also recognize excess CO₂, other GHG emissions, and general resource usage as waste.
