ON THE GO

Your plastic free journey doesn't have to end when you leave the house. Being as zero waste as possible whilst out and about isn't as difficult as you might think; it's mainly just a case of trying to reuse things instead of buying new whilst you're out of the house (for example, taking a bottle of water with you when you go shopping instead of buying water in a plastic bottle). 
 
Above is the ever-growing collection of plastic free alternatives that I have come across so far, from reusable coffee cups to plastic free chewing gum. It will expand as time goes by so it's worth checking back for more ideas!

Sometimes, having a plastic free lifestyle whilst out and about works in your favour - most coffee shops these days give you a discount for using a refillable coffee cup! So not only does it save single use waste from ending up in landfill, it also saves you a few pennies!
