It would be great if: 1. Companies choose nature friendly packaging for their products and eliminate usage of plastics 2. People take time to separate recyclable from trash as well as take time to clean the plastic before putting it to recycle 3. Usage of styrofoam is eliminated completely across restaurants and other places There is more to my wishlist.. will come back to it later.. During my childhood days, I used to accompany my father to local grocery store and shopkeepers would: 1. Pack a lot of items in old newspaper sheets tied with jute threads 2. Vegetables will be weighed and added to cloth bag brought from our home 3. Cooking Oils will be filled in stainless steel/aluminium vessels we bring from home #SustainableLiving #ReduceAndRecycle

Biodegradable earth positive materials for packaging are already a reality- more are needed. EPR's should push manufacturers and consumers should prompt EPRs. Let's act together.
