I think most importantly we need to just reduce. By buying in bulk we are reducing the amount of packaging we acquire from individual packaging of individual items. Also, we should always use reusable water bottles rather than constantly buying new plastic water bottles and then throwing them away. Another way we can reduce is by using reusable bags when grocery shopping or even clothes shopping. That way we don't get a new back after we go shopping that we will eventually just have to throw away. Something that I just learned recently was that at Starbucks you can bring in your own mug or cup that they will gladly use to fill your drink in, thus preventing from you having to throw away yet another plastic cup! All of these things are preventative measures that will reduce the amount of waste you will eventually just throw away no matter how long you try to preserve it.

Yes we should start reusing things and thinking which would be the best option to help the world and low the trash made by the year. Another option to help the world is to start making a rule in some places like school and works, to only use hard water plastc bottles, which are reusable and can lower the trash.
