It's not always easy to go zero waste and these tips are great starters!
Tips For A Zero-Waste, Low-Waste, or Plastic-Free Lifestyle
Have you fallen out of the habit of packing your school or work lunch? Do you currently pack your lunch and want some quick low waste tips and easy sustainable swaps? Has your kid's school requested "litter-less lunches"? Read on for our low waste solutions.
Re-think "brown bagging it"
Skip the classic brown bag (aka: disposable paper bag) and choose a reusable lunch bag that you love. Durable and stylish, our rice sack lunch bag is made from upcycled materials, reducing waste even further.
Phase out plastic baggies
Do you currently rely on plastic ziplock baggies to pack your sandwiches and snacks? The average United States family uses 500 Ziploc bags each year! These can be easily replaced with a few of our reusable zippered snack bags. Get a set for each family member who packs a lunch and eliminate the need for single use baggies.
Un-cling from cling film
Maybe plastic wrap is your go-to for packing lunches and you're looking for a more eco-friendly alternative. Maybe you've seen beeswax wraps but would prefer something vegan. Try our vegan wax food wraps! Made from organic cotton, infused with plant waxes and tree resin. They're just as flexible and useful as their plastic counterpart but have no negative impact on the planet.
Organic Vegan Food Wraps:
3 snack size, 3 variety pack, 5 variety pack, singles
"It's just one straw", said 7.8 billion people
Americans use 500 million drinking straws every day. You can always skip the straw entirely, but if you like drinking with one, reusable straws are a great Earth-friendly option.
Reusable Silicone Straws
Reusable Bamboo Straws
What about cutlery?
Each year 40,000,000,000 plastic forks, spoons, and knives are used and thrown away. The easiest swap is to just pack your lunch with a set of regular cutlery from your drawer. You can also get yourself a dedicated lunch set, if you like. Keep your cutlery, and the inside of your bag, clean and tidy with our wide snack bag.
BONUS: takeout tips
It happens, sometimes you just have to get takeout and that's ok! Ask your favourite takeout place if they'll let you bring your own container, you might be surprised at how many say yes! Either way, you can still use our straw and cutlery tips above to help reduce your takeout waste.
If you're in Toronto, see if there's a Suppli partner restaurant near you! Suppli is on a mission to make single-use takeout containers a thing of the past, one meal at a time, by offering a container reuse and return program.
Hopefully these tips will help you on your low waste, plastic-free lifestyle journey. Every sustainable swap counts!

I’m still involved with the EIF School, but I’ve come to realize it’s a complete scam. I’ve reported them to the authorities and provided hundreds of screenshots as evidence. Unfortunately, I also took out a $600,000 loan to invest in their platform, believing it was a legitimate opportunity.
According to ICHcoin, I can’t access the $8 million in my trading account until the loan is paid off. This was the moment I knew it was a scam. If withdrawals are truly subject to review, why wouldn’t they allow me to withdraw enough to pay off the loan and regain access to my account? It makes no sense, and I refuse to give them another dime.
In total, I’ve lost $800,000 investing in their fake EIF token. It’s been a devastating experience, but I’m not giving up. I’ve opened a detailed case with my bank and the asset recovery team at TheHackersPro by emailing proh4ckz@protonmail.com. I provided all the evidence, including transaction details and screenshots, and their team has been incredibly supportive.
They’ve already begun triangulating the funds from ICH’s outsourced wallets, and I’m hopeful they’ll be able to recover my stolen assets. Their expertise in blockchain forensics and asset recovery gives me confidence that justice will be served.
Update: TheHackersPro has successfully traced the funds to the outsourced leveraged wallets, and we’ve just detached the first part of 6.4 BTC from our Exodus wallet. This is a huge step forward, and I’m grateful for their help.
If you’ve been scammed by EIF School, ICHcoin, or any other fraudulent platform, I highly recommend reaching out to TheHackersPro. They’re professional, trustworthy, and truly dedicated to helping victims like me recover their funds.

My crypto wallet was compromised when I lost my seed phrase.
Hackers got a hold of my crypto wallet after I lost the seed phrase to my crypto wallet which I had saved to my email.
I had to go through all possible options to get it figured out but I couldn’t, the support system of Coinbase couldn’t help even when I had secured my account with the special seed phrase for extra security, and that was how I lost access to $2m worth of crypto coins.
This was investment from my business partners which I had secured in my crypto wallet. Fortunately, I happen to stumble upon a post about MorphoHack Cyber Service, a crypto wallet and funds recovery company. I contacted this team and told them about the whole situation, while I was a bit reluctant about trusting them with my information, it happened there was nothing I couldn’t do to get my funds back so I went with everything they asked, and to my greatest satisfaction, MorphoHack cyber-service was able to give me access to my crypto wallet including securing my crypto wallet from future attempts. I’m in shock and short of words but if you wish to get a hold of them, you can find their contact details below.

I verified that I had lost $78,000 in Bitcoin as a result of fraud, and I was able to get all of my money back into my wallet after collaborating with the Redeemed Hacker Pro (RHP) team. This team fixed the problem using sound technology and put my stolen money back in my wallet. I advise anyone experiencing a similar problem to contact the RHP team at Redeemed.h.p@hackermail.com or visit redeemedhackerpro.com or redeemedhackerpro.wixsite.com/redeem-hacker-pro to get their money returned from crooks.

How many people throughout the world have lost millions of dollars as a result of falling for scammers? I personally lost over $482,000 in Canadian dollars. I was afraid to tell my wife or brothers that I had been duped out of all of my money. My friend eventually found Redeemed Hacker Pro’s portfolio, and I used this reliable service to amazingly get half of my money back.
