How to reduce the generation of garbage

To reduce the generation of garbage, we can start with the following measures: 1, take necessary supplies when going out, and say no to disposable chopsticks. According to statistics, 20 million trees need to be cut down every year to make disposable chopsticks and wooden toothpicks, most of which are discarded after being used once. When going to work, eating out or traveling, you should bring sterilized metal chopsticks, as well as other tableware, cloth napkins, water cups, etc. A better way is to bring your own healthy meal; Don't use plastic bags when shopping. Remember to bring reusable shopping bags when you go shopping in the supermarket, and loudly tell the cashier not to use plastic bags when you check out, so that customers behind you may also be positively affected; 3. Don't buy something in a small package. If you need to buy packaged goods occasionally, remember to buy larger goods with the least packaging, and don't buy goods packaged in single portions of every food, such as chewing gum or cereal bars. A big box, a big bag or a big bottle of goods, compared with small quantities of goods, produces much less waste and is more affordable; Secondly, wear less high-grade chemical fiber clothing, wear more cotton products and buy less clothes. Simple clothes will reduce the generation of garbage.
