Have you thought about how much you have in each day there is garbage? Did you know that in Tallinn per capita occurs almost 400 kg of mixed waste per year? Everyone should certainly be reviewed, which he throws in the trash under the sink.
The main part of the contents of the bin, with high probability, accounts for food waste and related packaging. During moving or cleaning become an unpleasant surprise found in a closet not taken out of packaging tools, clothes or other consumer goods, date of purchase which are difficult to remember. Even worse, if it turns out to be the cosmetics that have expired. Waste of money, think of the person first. And the environment?
Here are some tips to reduce the amount of waste arising.

• If you constantly forget to take your bag, put in car or bag a spare plastic bag that unplanned trip to the store bag or the bag is already with you.
• Before buying, think you need this thing or you want it only one at a time. Maybe the wiser thing to borrow or buy for a few people, especially for seasonal items (ski, lawn mower, etc.) . Think about all the things that the majority of the time without things stored in the basement.
• Give preference to sold by weight, not packaged product, which is often excessively packaged.
• Buying fruit, you can do one plastic bag, because a single packet can be pasted and a few stickers. Sometimes he does not need, eg. the sticker price can be pasted on a bunch of bananas.
• Sliced product — in recent years the convenience. When cutting food at home you will greatly reduce the waste of packaging. Did you know that the price cut goods in a quarter or half higher?
• Don't buy unnecessary products in large quantities. Consider that in the coming days you are going to cook. So there is less trash you have to throw away later.
• Give preference to goods which are sold and exchangeable fillers.
• As garbage bags use old plastic bags, save on special garbage bags.
• Sort packages and deliver into a container for packaging. So you will help the re-use of packaging and reduce the amount of waste deposited in landfills.
• Give preference to a product with environmental labelling in its production creates less waste.
• In portable electronic devices (flashlight, camera, Sidi player, etc.) instead of disposable batteries use rechargeable batteries — one battery can be recharged up to 1000 times!
• Instead of bottled water for drinking water use filters for the faucet or the filter-jugs.
• Before you throw something, think, can this be repaired, do something else, or to give to someone.
• Do not buy a new mobile phone, TV or other equipment just because the old model went out of fashion.
