Consumable Waste Plan
Consumable waste plan
Every day I wake up and I have breakfast and its usually something like eggs or cereal or a smoothie or something on the lines of that, but all of the food that I am eating does in fact come in packaging, unless its fruit or something else but even then its usually in some sort of bag. Example, I wake up and I decide to make myself eggs and bacon and a protein shake and lets add in toast. the eggs first of all can be in an cardboard like container or even Styrofoam, the bacon will usually come in a plastic type thing and the protein that I have comes in a big plastic jug and of course bread comes in a plastic bag. so as we can see there is a lot of garbage being used right here and I think its a bit unnecessary… or is it. all of the packaging that is used is used for a reason. they cannot sell eggs or anything honestly by hand because that is unsanitary and also, you have no idea where its been. things can also go moldy and things may not be as good as they can be without the proper packaging. In that case they are pretty useful, but then you have to think of what happens to that packaging after you are done eating the food that is inside. obviously, its heading to the garbage or the recycling. but what happens after that. it will probably be going to a dump or worse could even be dumped inside the ocean. in this case it is a double edged blade. we need to have the packaging to help keep the food edible and safe and healthy. In my eyes I think that a way that we could definitely reuse and recycle better. or even not buying things that come with such packaging that wont be good for the environment for say growing things in your yard and maybe making sure that if you are buying something, the packaging is recyclable and at least not horrific for the environment.
