2. Produce Bags
Instead of using plastic bags for produce, use reusable produce bags or no bags at all. I was a big offender here. I would put all of my produce in those handy tear off plastic bags, then the second I got home I tore them open, loaded my fruits and veggies into the fridge, and tossed the bags in the trash. It’s embarrassing I did this with no real thought about the impact all those little plastic bags would have on the world for the next 450 years. Now, I carefully consider if the produce even needs a bag. For items I prefer to contain, mesh produce bags work great and are easy to clean.
