Reducing Plastic Waste

Other

Hi, I'm just wondering what everyone does to help with the environment with the plastic crisis. Do you recycle, only buy drinks where the bottles are made from recycled plastic. E.g smart water is made from. 100% recycled plastic. Do you buy different brand alternatives that have less/no plastic to your normal brand.

Always recycle, it’s so easy to do, no reason not to. Try to buy things with less plastic or recycled plastic.

We recycle as much as we can.

Used to buy 500ml bottles of spring water, but I'm now getting the big 5 litre ones and put the water into reusable bottles. How much plastic production it saves, I don't know.

As for smart meters, I won't have any interest until they are universal between all the energy companies. It was probably the worst idea by the government at the time. And when they say that they're free, that's an absolute pile. We're all paying for the installation in our bills,even if you don't get one, it's all factored in.

A smart meter wouldn't make a difference to me anyway. I only use energy when I need it, I don't put the oven or my lights etc on for a laugh.
