In reply to Elliott. Thanks! And yes, I think people think that being more sustainable will cost more money because they don't see the long term benefits. Thanks for reading!

Great post! I don’t think people always realise that you can save money and be more sustainable too! Cheers

Such a well thought out post! These are all good points, and sometimes we don’t stop to think about things that are already reusable like sponges or cleaning bottles.

Jason and Patti, I tried to send something on your contact page, but it looks like it’s not working. Please let me know how to reach you 🙂

Great tips! We haven’t used paper towels for years but readily admit that our dish towels are looking rough and there are always a ton of towels and napkins in the wash. It was easier before kids but now I try to convince them to at least help fold!

In reply to Carrie Lynn. The Wet-It Cloth (or even similar cloths) and the scrubby sponge are my favorite things on the list to use. You should definitely give it a try!

Love the idea for replacing our nasty sponge for dishes. I’ll give the Wet-It Cloth a try. Thanks!

In reply to Juliet Dreamhunter. I totally get what you are saying about paper towels - we have 2 little kids and sometimes I just want to use a paper towel for cleanup so that I can just throw it out! . We still buy them but only once or twice a year now. Instead we use the microfiber cloths for most of our cleaning. Or like you said, just a reusable towel works too!

Great ideas here! I use grocery and produce bags and feel like I’m much eco-friendlier now without all that plastic. However, paper towels is one thing I can’t seem to live without. I incorporated a reusable towel for half of the tasks, but still it’s just too convenient to easily let go…
