1000 Flowers for the Planet - #80 Buy Laundry Powder in a Box
It’s all well and good to recycle whenever
you can, and buying laundry liquid in a plastic bottle seems okay if you pop it
into the recycling bin in the end, but the false economy comes in buying the
refills which try to make you feel better by advertising that they produce less
landfill.
The aim is to not produce landfill at all, so
when I looked into buying phosphate-free detergent for my laundry (per Flower
#61) I found a product that came in a cardboard box. When it’s empty I can put
it in the recycling without worrying whether or not it can actually be recycled
at my local plant.
