Go Green Go Clean - A Zero Waste Guide

Going Green has always been the talk of the hour for quite a few years, but ARE WE ACTUALLY READY TO LEAVE THE THINGS WE LOVE THE MOST BEHIND AND HAVE A ZERO-WASTE LIVING?

Don't Panic.

Yes, obviously you can, but only slowly and steadily.

Zero-waste living is never an overnight changeover, it is a process. It is a way of lifestyle.

Green lifestyle is the talk of the town, now more than ever. It is everywhere, the social media, the commercials, the banners - With every industry trying to embrace the world that we live in and try not to destroy the already depleting Earth.

The more you understand what going green means, the more you can contribute to making a Change.

"It's just one plastic water bottle."

- sounds familiar, right? This is what almost 8 billion people say on a daily basis. You have to be careful with this mind-blowing manipulation.

Now, certain questions may arise. Say, for example,

HOW CAN ONE SINGLE PERSON BRING A CHANGE IN THE WORLD?

IS IT ACCEPTABLE IF I STILL USE PLASTIC CONTAINERS TO STORE GROCERIES?

SHOULD I JUST THROW AWAY ALL MY PLASTIC/NON-BIODEGRADABLE UTILITIES AND BUY ECO-FRIENDLY PRODUCTS?

EVEN THEN HOW CAN I BE SURE THAT I WOULD BE LIVING A ZERO-WASTE LIFE?

Observe the picture below

We don't need a handful of people doing Zero-waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly.

Now you have it. The ultimate answer to all your questions.

Also, note that

Going green doesn't mean you throw away all your existing plastics/Non-biodegradable products. It means you got to use them until you get tired of it and they cannot be used anymore.
