Steps this helps you take.

Buy renewed / refurbished tech
Electronic waste is the fastest growing waste stream next to fast fashion. Today there are trustworthy services that buy and refurbish pre-loved electronics and resell them back. This expands the lifespan of the products, gives you a cheaper price while providing the same experience as new devices. You will get a return policy, warranty and fully functional often modern devices.
Choose second-hand fashion
By purchasing second-hand items, you reduce the demand for new products and the energy needed for their production, contributing to lower carbon emissions and resource consumption.
Limit or best avoid food waste
1/3 of the food we produce is being wasted or lost in the process along the value chain. Consumers are one part of the puzzle. Try to plan your meals, use opened items from your fridge quickly and pay special attention to animal products. Wasting animal products like meat or dairy uses the most resources in production and therefore has a big impact when not wasted. Ideally reduce meat and dairy products to a minimum.
Resell unused items
- Electronics - Appliances - Furniture - Clothes - more
Buy plastic free / unpackaged food and items.
The type of food is more impactful than how it is packaged. A plastic wrapped vegan stake, is better than a non-plastic wrapped, "local" cow-steak. Therefore, before you worry about a plastic free shopping cart, try to reduce animal products like meat or dairy first. For other daily bathroom essential like tooth paste or shampoo, easy plastic free, solid alternatives exist. For these items you only need to a find a replacement and a store once, and then you can forget about it. For other items, try to avoid plastic where possible, but don't beat yourself up for this. Try to focus on more impactful actions first. In places with bad recycling infrastructure, advocate for it.
Plastic & waste free bathroom
Eliminating single-use plastic products from your bathroom reduces plastic pollution in oceans and landfills, protecting marine life, and conserving resources while promoting a healthier ecosystem.
Recycle and sort your waste correctly
Many people are not separating and recycling correctly. Even though much of the plastic is being burned and called "recycling" it makes a difference. Always separate the different materials from each other. For example remove the paper and the aluminum lid from the plastic yoghurt cup (even if they go into the same bin) and sort your waste into the correct bins. This makes it easier for the machines in the recycling facilities to identify and sort the waste correctly and therefore increases recycling rates and material recovery. Check local recycling guidelines to learn how your bins work.
