@wastenotlife We will take people’s batteries for them when we drop off a delivery.. 👍

The best way to do a waste audit is to keep a piece of paper by your bin, make a note of everything you are throwing away! Break this down into recycling, composting and landfill (there is no such thing as away!). Then think how when and what can be changed! #zerowastehour

[Pack your Own @packyourown]

@zerowastehour Totally missed the hour but will reply anyway 😃any steps forward are good, it can be hard to change the habit loop and I don’t think zero waste is actually attainable for most people, but if lots of people change s little bit it will make a difference.

@biomboo_uk @the_eco_Logical @zerowastehour You would think this but awareness and taking action are much further apart than you think!

@biomboo_uk @zerowastehour Was just pondering what to do with our spent bamboo tooth brush. Think it has a life cleaning my bike chain first! #reuse

@TheCleanKilo Wow that’s amazing! 👍

@wastenotlife Just reminded me we have a glut of beetroot.. picked with some chilli 🌶 mmmm

[Pack your Own @packyourown]

We love the really local orders we get, these bags were collected filled and returned in lightening speed.. almost like going to the shop yourself, just without the single use plastics. 👍 https://t.co/8IeLtW1xwi

@Gorillacoffeeuk It’s ok I got there in the end! Will definitely book her in when she’s due a proper service?

@Gorillacoffeeuk do you have any experience of adjusting dual cable disc brakes? Margo the cargo bike is in need of adjustment! 🤗

@zerowastehour @ecotricity @bulbenergy @GoodEnergy @tonikenergy @biomboo_uk @ZeroWasteMCR @the_eco_Logical @PebbleMagazine @FulfilledShop @packyourown @ZerowasteshopUK @wasteXbridport I encourage my makers/brands to use eco-conscious packaging when posting their orders and if this is part of there ethos the eco-conscious icon is displayed on their shop page so customers know when they are buying that it's not delivered in plastic #zerowastehour

@wnwnheidi Yes!

Contactless on the bus has got to be one of the best uses of tech recently. So easy AND saves on paper usage/waste too!

[Pack your Own @packyourown]

Bumped into The #GreenClean reverse vending machine in town today. Was great talking to them about recycling and our efforts to reduce single use plastics.

[humblestuff @humblestuff]

Love cleaning, but not so keen on the harmful chemicals found in many big brand household products? It’s time to switch to https://t.co/AR4ukHnDso 100% handmade and free from synthetic detergents, fragrances, antibacterial biocides and palm oil. #WednesdayMotivation 🌿🍋

@ToastAle @woldtopbrewery Super interested to know how you have done this.. what would be even better is some sort of return scheme so we could sell your beer and ensure the bottles return to be filled again. 😂

[Pack your Own @packyourown]

Tomorrow we will be dropping off this order to a customer via cargo trike, making a little dent in food miles and single use plastics.. it’s a small step but if we make lots of them we can make a difference. 😊
