Trash to Treasures

Floating Trash SUP board

Happy Zero Waste Wed!

Decreasing our waste is definitely a challenge, one that dealt with differently from person to person. There are two ways to fight the battle against waste, one is to reduce consumption and the other is to get creative making multiple uses out of your traditionally single use waste.  

Whether you are waste free or not, you have access to an endless supply of plastic water bottles from your neighbors and community. Last year, in the US alone, we consumed over 5 Billion single-use water bottles. There are a variety of ways to provide a second life to waste ranging from recreation products and hydroponic gardens to floating islands! 

Below are a few examples. Your limits are your imagination or Pinterest acumen. :)
