We as a society

We as a society need to be more conscious of what we are doing to our Planet. Less is better if you buy water in the bottle single serve reuse it refill and reuse.
Try buying items that have less packaging the garbage that we produce in this country is incredible.
Earth Ship Houses are a great way of reusing the trash that we produce I am sure there are many more ways of using trash we throw away in our land fills.  The point is that if we choose to buy more consciously and let the companies know how we fell about excessive packaging if enough of us let them know it will make a difference in how they package their products after all they want us to buy their products.  Change comes in numbers and if enough of you feel strong enough about making change in time it will happen.
Now I am not going to say I don't use items that are plastic because I do, but I reuse them until they are no longer usable. Let me give you an example I have two of my grandchildren that live with me so I bought a box of glad sandwich bags to use for their school lunches.  My oldest granddaughter( 8 years old) came home from school yesterday and said Grammi why don't we buy a sandwich holder that way we wont use plastic bags for my sandwich, great idea I said then out of her mouth came here I have been saving all of the bags from my lunches so we can use them to freeze some of the vegetables we get from our garden well my heart melted at 8 years old she gets it.
With this I say to all of you out there teach your children the importance of less is more and teach them that recycling is a good. Teach them the pride of growing their own food being self sustainable They are our future and the future of our planet they love to learn and always want to be helpful Now is the time to teach them the importance of keeping our planet healthy and our landfills empty.
