I visited The Sustainability Store in Summerhills off Pipps Hill Road, Basildon. I'll admit my only purchase was a pack of 'Moonie' Reusable Cotton Pads, 7 in a pack and made of biodegradable brushed cotton, so much better than using the alternative cotton wool throw-away pads. But I will go back to The Sustainability Store with my empty washing-up liquid bottle and washing detergent and conditioner bottles. I'll probably alternate going here with Nic Eco
Before I planned to talk to Rachel and Cherry from Eco Colnes & Halstead I actually thought that we were doing all we could to be sustainable, how wrong was I! On the plus side we never buy fruit in plastic bags, we either put the fruit loose or in paper bags. But we were kidding ourselves as there is so much more we can do still. I had the idea that rather than buy cheese in plastic from the shelves you could get it from the delicatessen and bring your own container. I'm gradually thinking of more ideas on how to be more sustainable.
