Reusing >>> recycling!
Do you *have* to keep every glass jar and bottle you come in contact with? I would say yes, but it’s a fine line between reusing and hoarding! If you find yourself with too many, offer them up to your local refill store or on your local @buynothingproject group or @facebookmarketplace to keep them in use and out of the waste stream.
Why save everything for reuse if glass is highly recyclable? Well, “recyclable” doesn’t mean an item is actually recycled. Glass recycling is very energy intensive and may even be crushed into landfill cover in your area - look into it!

I reuse them in the freezer with all sorts of food that is left over from cooking , so many meals put together from small amounts that many folk would waste !!!!!🥹🥹🥹

😂This is so darn relatable. I can’t bring myself to throw away glass ever. Or keep reusing the random plastic tubs that so many “food” products are packaged in.
