Most of us are familiar with the term ‘zero-waste’ and have been adopting some of the principles of it into our daily lives. Carrying reusable water bottles and coffee cups has started to become second nature. Other household products have also become an easy switch, from bamboo toothbrushes to safety razors.
Slowly, the things we consume are also changing, with the reduction in the use of plastic being one of the key motivations. Zero-waste shops seem to be becoming more and more common where plastic packaging is being replaced with customers bringing their own refillable containers.
