At home, on the road or at work: everywhere, we unwittingly use a lot of disposable packaging. By changing small habits, together we save a lot of waste. Even during a day out or an outing. These tips make it easy to avoid waste and hassle on the road.
Bring a rubbish bag
You never know when you might come across a bin. Having a small bag handy makes it easy to keep your waste with you. Dispose of it later in a bin on the road or at home. This keeps nature clean and prevents littering.
Use your own bag
Before leaving, always put a sturdy bag in your backpack or car. Handy for groceries, snacks or small purchases. This way, you avoid extra plastic bags and take less waste home.
Opt for reusable
A water bottle, lunch box or tray saves piles of disposable packaging. Take them with you when you go out. Feel free to have snacks at the snack bar in your own container or fill your bottle at a tap. The more often we do this, the more resources we save together.
Prepare your own snacks
Having your own snacks or lunch in reusable containers prevents last-minute purchases in disposable packaging. Easy, tasty and waste-free.
Borrow what you don't need often
Going camping or having a party? First see if you can borrow stuff from family, friends, neighbours or through a sharing platform. This will save storage, costs and waste.
Clean up before you leave
Make your outing complete by bringing your own waste as well as picking up litter you find along the way. With the bag in your bag, you will be helping to create a clean environment for everyone.
With these simple habits, we enjoy every outing. Thus, step by step, we make reuse more natural - for ourselves and for the next generation.
