Hello, and welcome to refuse the refuse. You can also find me @refusetherefuse on Instagram and you can email me at refusetherefuse@gmail.com.

It’s a slow process, requiring patience and planning, but steps can be taken to minimize our impact on Earth’s resources.

Others have gone before me to blaze the trail of zero waste, but I find the term “zero waste” gives a scary impression. People read zero waste and baulk (or balk) at the idea, because it seems so impossible.

I don’t think I’ll ever be totally refuse free, but I’m trying my hardest.

Would you like to join me on the journey?
