Climate Quick Tip: Bulk Up to Save Money and Avoid Plastic!

Just 9 percent of plastic is actually recycled, according the EPA. And plastic wrap is one of the least likely products to be recycled! Instead, buy in bulk and don’t pay for the packaging, taking your own reusable containers when possible. Store leftovers in repurposed glass containers, reusable or compostable bags, or bees wrap.

Plastic shrink wrap is rarely recyclable or recycled. Try one of Bluedot’s Buy Better cco-friendly storage options instead.
