I tried to switch to bar soap with a bamboo soap dish that sits on a little tray thing. It got moldy right away and it was nasty. Any tips to prevent this? submitted by /u/rainbowtoucan1992 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Having just read a post about using loofahs in the home as a ZW option for sponges/scrubbers, I can say that I have been using them for 20 years and love them in the kitchen and the bath. But can anyone share their experience growing their own in the garden? Are loofah gourd plants appropriate for container gardening on a balcony? Anything particular to watch for? They seem also to vary in coarseness, and some really soften over time. Does that have to do with the varietal? Or how long the plant is left to grow? Thanks in advance, ZW hivemind ! submitted by /u/Different_Call_1871 [visit redd ..read more

Early on around 1997 when we moved in together, my husband and I just started using cloths to clean the kitchen instead of paper towels. We had a milk crate out in the garage that we would toss them in dirty and wash them when it was full. Been 27 years now and we use maybe 4 rolls of paper towels a year, mostly for greasy stuff. When the cloth get really ragged, then they go to the garage for the oily nasty throwaway chores. submitted by /u/fredfreddy4444 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I was wondering what people do for lotion, I used the lush bars many years ago, but I didn't like how oily they are, texture wise, and because I have issues with body acne. I was also wondering about hair care products. I am interested in trying the eco slay masks, but the packaging still needs to be recycle. I also don't know what to do for a heat protectant, if I should just keep using my current one because it's better than damaging my hair. submitted by /u/KegendTheLegend [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Most of you know most smartphones just barely repairable if not totally unrepairable. Batteries are for the most part difficult to replace and for most users impossible to replace. iPhone takes it a step farther with parts pairing, and not being able use parts from an identical device to make a repair. This youtube video explains it better than I ever could. https://youtu.be/sYIX-IEB41I?si=eDn5uO3LzbiAasdt submitted by /u/Embarrassed_Site512 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I don’t use bottled water at all. I got a yeti knock off and I’ve had it for years. I fill my 5 gallon glass bottles up at a local clean cold spring. So my drinking water is all zero waste. submitted by /u/Rvtrance [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I'm looking for sustainable dishwashing sponges and these are 2 sustainable ones. Which ones do you prefer? I heard that while both are biodegradable, cellulose sponges requires more resources and energy to manufacture, is this true? submitted by /u/mongster6 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Complete greenwashing!!! I have had this product shoved down my throat on snapchat claiming to be “zero waste” because it is sold in a glass bottle. However, I do not usually buy snapchat brands- but I started to get interested in this product. However, I began to watch review videos of this “zero waste” coffee concentrate to see if it was any good. Every bottle is wrapped in plastic bubble wrap inside the cardboard protector boxes they show in the ads! In my opinion, complete greenwashers trying to make a quick dollar off of the sustainable community. I found this infuriating. submitted by ..read more
