You can find thousands of articles and videos about zero waste. There are also a few of them on this blog. Recently, the bag has been torn with this trend – package free shops are opening up, they charge you for a plastic bag at the store in Slovakia, metal straws are a hit, and […]
My hair is naturally curly, voluminous and quite thick. It grows relatively fast. I’ve never had a problem with having dandruff, my hair breaking, or it being too damaged. I have never coloured it (yet, because this year I really want to do it). The only thing I always had to deal with was that […]
I bring my own bag to the store. I use fabric produce bags for fruit and vegetables instead of plastic ones. I have a bamboo toothbrush. I use cosmetics sold in paper, glass or without packaging.

Zero waste doesn’t only mean rejecting plastic. Plastics are among all common materials the most harmful, because they never decompose in nature (they only break into microparticles), many are non-recyclable and harm the environment; but zero waste lifestyle means not creating any form of waste.
