Skip the straw So many places now are banning plastic straws, because they aren't recyclable and mostly just end up in the ocean, aspiring to become a part of that plastic island. Because I love eating at food trucks, but I hate plastic utensils.and there's never anyplace to recycle them (if they even are recyclable).

Sure, there are days when you go out for a nice meal with co-workers or pay for the school lunch on pizza day, but when I think back to my school days I fondly remember those brown paper bags. Everything in that lunch bag can be washed and reused or at least an be dealt with in an environmentally-friendly manner.

Create a meal plan for the week, and base your grocery shopping list on what you will actually eat during the week. A meal plan can be one of the best ways to avoid last-minute takeout runs, as well as ensure that you have a way to use the food you buy. You can also freeze homemade meals, including soups, casseroles and other items.

Ny taking your own bags, reusing plastic bags you already have or even sewing some fabric bags from old t-shirts and things you can save a lot.

Look for eco-friendly products with limited recyclable packaging, low-toxicity, no petrochemicals, are biodegradable and phosphate-free. Involve the whole family in menu planning and meal preparation. Reuse and recycle – consumerism has taught us to throw away anything that is broken or that we no longer want or need.

When you are cooking a meal or serving up some food, try to put only the amount you will eat on your plate – you can refrigerate any left overs and use them for another meal! Instead of buying ready meals and fast food, buy more fresh ingredients and cook fresh, healthy food. Eat Healthy and Use Raw Ingredients.

You can still shop, do home improvements, and go out for a meal. Green shopping with companies that reduce shipping impacts, reuse and recycle packaging, shrink carbon footprints, and are committed to resource conservation are hard to find. Being frugal and going green, sometimes you have to cut corners.
