We are in the habit of buying excessively packaged food. Energy and resources go into producing packaging. It also causes problems when we go to dispose of it. If packaging isn’t recyclable, it goes into landfill, contributing to our overall waste problem.
If you buy in bulk, you should be able to significantly reduce the amount of packaging that goes into your bin, and save yourself some money on the way. Eating more fresh food and less processed products is another good way to avoid packaging. And making sure any packaging you buy is recyclable means that it ends up in the recycling bin instead of in landfill.
