Hi Friends, Lets have a Marching March. These Days we see plastics everywhere. In the morning we get up and and our brushes are made of plactics... to the end off the day when we finish shopping and come we have lots lots of plastic bags. This is bad. As we all know these are non-biodegradable and they are getting dumped up.:bonk and the earth is drowning in it .:drowning Come lets join hands and bid the plastics (atleast the non-biodegradable) a good bye. Do add on the tip and what can be followed on day to day life. - I take the clothes bag when i go for shopping. Make sure there is a bag always in the car. - I do not accept the small plastics bag which the vendor give me. - For my DH's busniess, we have made arragement with a manufacture who can give us jute bags which we can give to our customer. - Check the plastic type before buying them .Buying biodegradable plastic is OK. - I have the clothe napkins in office which i use instead of the tissue papers . Replace the napkin every 3 days. - Our team as a oath uses Mugs(either cermic or silver) instead of the paper cups for T.Save tress to save the earth .:thumbsup Love our earth Srisha

Re: Say Good Bye to Plastics.Save Mother Earth for our future generations. Every Days hi, wonderful tips. thanx for sharing it with us.
Re: Say Good Bye to Plastics.Save Mother Earth for our future generations. Every Days Dear Srisha, Paper tea cups have wax coated on them, when you pour hot tea / coffee / water, the wax tends to melt. Better not to use them. The idea of using cloth napkins is so good. I too carry cloth bag for shopping always, do use mop sticks which are made of wood instead of plastic. My father had made a wooden trolley for putting the empty gas cylinder. I use metal water bottles instead of plastic ones. They dont stink like plastics and it is squeaky clean too! I also use wooden clips to hold clothes in place. Try using shell / wooden hair clips / clutches even for hair. I have cloth bags made out of cottons for preserving silk sarees / expensive salwars! Offlate i have started using jute bags to office too, trendy and cheap in variety of colors and you have a matching set always! We cannot avoid plastic drums / containers / buckets, but atleast ensure that it is bio-degradable.

Re: Say Good Bye to Plastics.Save Mother Earth for our future generations. Every Days Some of my monthly bills are subscribed through e-bills, I get bills through email and I pay them online. It's my another way of saving paper. And fuel too- no need of going out and pay the bill. And another way of how I recycle some plastic bags at home like the milk plastic bag is I recycle them, I make a strips out of it (Plarn they call) and crochet them to make storage.
