Good stuff!

I do not or did not drink coffee out that often but more since I moved in with family because they shout me coffee out sometimes.

I donā€™t try particularly to be.

I think businesses are more responsible because of the things they do is just at such a larger scale then what an individual or a community can do. Airplanes and trucks driving endlessly to businesses and they donā€™t do it because they like the drive. They do it because of the businessā€™s interests.

But when u throw away trash, do u take ur bin With u? Like no plastic bag?

We throw out a small bag of trash per week. Most stuff is sorted into bins along the side of my garage. Cans, bottles, plastic, paper/cardboard. When the bin is full it goes to the recycle depot and gets emptied into the appropriate area. Compost goes to a compost bin out back and to the compost area.

when I read how much food is thrown away in the U.S. every year

I really started to never throw food away. Iā€™ll eat it up to a week later

or we feed it to the stray cats, or even Deoge sometimes.

So mad when I worked at Walmart, and weā€™d throw so much away

and all 6 of their dumpsters were pad locked.

I recycle and I buy some eco-friendly products like plant based products and ones that can break down without harming the earth or the animals. I like helping the earth instead of damaging it, as best I can of course.

Mr. Star and I try to be eco friendly, but weā€™re staring down the barrel of parenthood and disposable diapers. No matter what anyone says, cloth is not a viable alternative, especially with medically fragile children or children prone to rash. And they ALWAYS leak. We will try the biodegradable ones, but weā€™ve heard really negative reviews from our parent friends.

Iā€™ve dumped a ton of trash bags into the ocean when I was on an aircraft carrier, but I donā€™t think itā€™s as bad as dumping nuclear waste into the ocean. Yes that has happened.
