Covid and Reusables

<p>One of the most frustrating things about COVID-19 (you know, other than the disease itself) is the fact that we can't use reusables such as mugs, grocery bags and bulk containers. This is having a terrible impact on the waste reduction movement. We are trying to protect ourselves from a current crisis, only to be contributing to a possibly even more threatening crisis in the future. </p> <p> </p> <p>Support Waste Free Edmonton here: <a href='https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=DC8U8JHCPFCVC&source=url'>https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=DC8U8JHCPFCVC&source=url</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Read the document about resuables being safe here: <a href='https://bioplasticsnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Reusable-Safe-Statement.pdf'>https://bioplasticsnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Reusable-Safe-Statement.pdf</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Write to businesses you [want to] patronize regularly and let them know you want reusables back! Leave reviews! Call them out on social media! Let's not get through one emergency just to create another.</p> <p> </p> <p>Do your best with what you have available. I may not be eating a lot of chocolate or drinking a lot of lattes right now, but self-care is important, however that looks to you! (I have spent a lot more time exercising. Hmmm... maybe this has been good for me...)</p>
