Ways to Green your Home

This month:

The Green Team is highlighting ways to green your home. Here in the Weekly Broadcast and on the bulletin board at the top of the Sunday School stairs.

This week: how to cut down on your plastic use and disposal. (see links to samples below)

• To save leftovers Pyrex containers are safe effective ways to freeze and or reheat…old school but better than using plastic containers and wraps. No PFAS getting into your food or FAMILY!

Now there is beeswax. To shape it over a bowl, use the warmth of your hands to conform it to the container. This is a great hostess gift and a way to share a great idea with others! See link below.

• Prepare double batches to save time on a busy day, and use less energy.

• Never buy another kitchen sponge again! There are various products that are made of recycled products that are disposable after many wipe ups! Cotton rags work also, and who doesn’t have an old cotton T shirt with holes in it? Cut it into several rag sizes for kitchen, car washing, windows, etc. Or try Swedish wipes, again another great hostess gift that is attractive! See link below.

Check out these eco-friendly products:

1.Bees Wrap

  1. Reusable Swedish Dish Cloths

Many items like these are also available at Outpost and Whole Foods.

If you shop at stores that do not offer these products, ask at the service desk…..every time you go in. Eventually maybe they will get the message and support vendors that make earth friendly products.
