About this listen

Minimalism meets DIY in an accessible guide to household waste reduction.

We all know how important it is to reduce our environmental footprint, but it can be daunting to know where to begin. Enter Kathryn Kellogg, who can fit all her trash from the past two years into a 16-ounce mason jar. How? She starts by saying "no" to straws and grocery bags, and "yes" to a reusable water bottle and compostable dish scrubbers.

In 101 Ways to Go Zero Waste, Kellogg shares these tips and more, along with DIY recipes for beauty and home; advice for responsible consumption and making better choices for home goods, fashion, and the office; and even secrets for how to go waste free at the airport. "It's not about perfection," she says. "It's about making better choices."

This is a practical, friendly blueprint of realistic lifestyle changes for anyone who wants to reduce their waste.

While very basic and something most tip books to "cut out plastic" will suggest, some of these tips are good and will help you reduce your carbon footprint. Unfortunately having listened to a lot of these books I didn't learn anything new. What I found works is keeping a bag within your handbag with all your "reusable" items such as a straw, cutlery, handkerchief (that doubles as a napkin), shopping bag and produce bag (these days you can buy one that is in a mini bag that can easily be kept in your handbag), reusable coffee cup and the nifty collapsing tupperware containers you can easily avoid unnecessary plastic that'll you then need to properly dispose of... FYI most don't give you weird looks for bringing your own "green" alternatives these days as it's something most are beginning to see as necessary
