So, I was thinking today about my personal habits, particularly with regard to recycling and creating less waste. I came up with the most wasteful thing I do (that I can think of, anyway). I need to quit getting takeout Chinese from Price Chopper for lunch. I don't do it very often, but I would be better off not doing it at all. It's terrible for me, it doesn't even taste that good, and it's a disaster as far as creating waste for a single meal goes. It comes in a Styrofoam container, within a plastic bag. It also comes with a paper cup. The straw is wrapped in plastic. The takeout meal is placed in a plastic bag. I use a plastic fork from the store to eat it (also wrapped in plastic!). Then, I throw everything away. It's really pretty horrendous.
You two or three readers out there: is there anything like this you do that you're ashamed of?
