Yaguchi Acting Director Some easy ways you can reduce your household waste--and save money by Lola Este EAGER The three R's of the envi- ronment are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. EAGER is work- ing on the recycle part of it, trying to establish a program in our area. Meanwhile, I would like to make a few suggestions about Reducing our waste. Many of these ideas also fit into the Reuse category, because when we use non-dis- posable products, we reuse them and thereby reduce the amount of garbage we throw away. One area where many of us can make a difference is in our children's school lunches and snacks. A common practice among parents is sending juice boxes along in lunches. Just think of the unnecessary garbage: three small boxes, each with a straw wrapped in plastic, all held together by a plastic wrapper. Not only is there more packaging to throw away, you can't control how much juice you giving out. Many smaller children can't drink all the juice contained in the boxes, so it gets thrown away too. That's not the way I want to spend my money. It's more economical and kind to the planet to buy a thermos (made of plastic for smaller children) and fill it with what- && At the end of the day, what dif- ference does washing another dish or two really make? 33 ever you have in the fridge. How many of us wrap sand- wiches, cookies or fruit in plas- tic wrap? Use your washed out milk bags or plastic containers for these things. At the end of the day, what difference does washing another dish or two really make? Does your child like canned fruit or pudding in his or her lunch? Do you buy individual servings for this purpose? Instead, make up a package of pudding, or use a large can of fruit and put it in those tupper- ware containers you've been accumulating in the cupboard for the, past five years.

Well, sit down and figure out the differ- ence between four individually packaged desserts and four -servings that you divide up yourself. Your tupperware has just paid for itself, and you'll make the environmentalists happy! Send your child's lunch, not in a new paper bag every day, but in a cloth bag, packsack or lunch pail. All of these are available in designs to suit any child and yes, you'll save money in the long run. It's no longer fashionable to be wasteful, so help your kids be cool by sending giving them a litterless lunch. More about Reducing and Reusing in another issue.
