Ten tips for a zero waste home by Bea Johnson

Bea Johnson has inspired millions of people worldwide with her stylish, waste-free life. She reduced her household waste to an astonishing one litre per year and now she can help transform the way you live with simple, practical steps that won’t compromise your lifestyle. She shares her key tips for zero-waste living...

The zero in “zero waste” makes it sound depriving and hard to achieve. But such preconceptions could not be further from the truth. Waste free living is not only better for the environment; it improves health, and saves time and money. And adopting it is as simple as following this simple guideline, in order:

Refuse what you do not need.

Reduce what you do need (and cannot refuse)

Reuse what you consume (and cannot refuse or reduce)

Recycle what you cannot refuse, reduce, or reuse

Rot (compost) the rest.

Here are 10 tips to get you closer to Zero Waste:

Refuse

1. Fight junk mail. It’s not just a waste of resources, but also of time.

2. Turn down freebies from conferences, fairs, and parties. Every time you take one, you create a demand to make more. Do you really need another “free” pen?

Reduce

1. Declutter your home, and donate to your local thrift shop. You’ll lighten your load and make precious resources available to those looking to buy secondhand.

2. Reduce your shopping trips and keep a shopping list. The less you bring home, the less waste you’ll have to deal with.

Reuse

1. Swap disposables for reusables (start using handkerchiefs, refillable bottles, shopping totes, cloth napkins, rags, etc.). You might find that you don’t miss your paper towels, but rather enjoy the savings.

2. Avoid grocery shopping waste: Bring reusable totes, cloth bags (for bulk aisles), and jars (for wet items like cheese and deli foods) to the store and farmers market.

Recycle

1. Know your city’s recycling policies and locations—but think of recycling as a last resort. Have you refused, reduced, or reused first? Question the need and life-cycle of your purchases. Shopping is voting.

Rot

1. Find a compost system that works for your home and get to know what it will digest (dryer lint, hair, and nails are all compostable).

2. Turn your home kitchen trash can into one large compost receptacle. The bigger the compost receptacle, the more likely you’ll be to use it freely.

An attempt at going zero waste starts with small changes. It’s within anyone’s reach, and change starts at home.
