Avoid Waste

You can avoid waste at home or in your business by following some key steps:

• Only buy what you need, make a shopping list and stick to it
• Buy products with minimal or no packaging
• Buy in bulk and refill containers
• Buy second hand
• Buy products made from recycled materials
• Buy products that can last, which can be cheaper in the long run
