Questions and Answers

Use a reusable bottle/cup for beverages on-the-go You might already have a reusable water bottle, but do you use it all the time. You can put that reusable bottle to use, save money and reduce waste. By taking your own water with you, you’ll also reduce your chances of purchasing more expensive beverages on-the-go. This will eliminate the one-time use containers they come in. While most cans and bottles can be recycled, they require a lot of energy to be produced, shipped to the bottling facility and then to the store for purchase. 2. Use ______ grocery bags, and not just for groceries Just like a reusable water bottle, you may already have a reusable grocery bag, though it’s often forgotten at home.
