Waste-Free Lunch

Cool People Care » » Waste-Free Lunch

The average American kid produces 67 pounds of trash a year just from their lunch. All those bags and plastic add up. And some of us grownups fare no better. Make a commitment today to eat a waste-free lunch. Here’s how: just fill your lunchbox with reusable containers, stainless steel utensils, a thermos, and a cloth napkin. This way, when you get home, you simply wash, rinse and repeat, as opposed to tossing all of the sexy packaging our food comes in. And if you’ve got some more time, please think about starting a waste-free lunch program near you.
