No buying stuff. (We cannot buy any material goods.). We will compost all food scraps. Hygiene refers to the basics only (ie...

The Clean Bin Project Blog. A Story of Reuse. Unpackaged at Last →. May 14, 2013 · 11:06 pm. Living zero waste isn’t about deprivation; it’s about living with less and figuring out better solutions that just happen to not involve disposable packaging. And it’s about time we talked about beer.

The City of Vancouver finally has real food scraps pick up. Back in 2010, the City started picking up fruit and veggie trimmings. It was a great step, but something that was a) already easily served by our backyard compost bin and b) not made available to the apartment dwellers who don’t have backyards to compost in in the first place. Yes, a fashion show&#...

The Clean Bin Project Blog. August 27, 2013 · 4:14 am. I remember back when I heard about the first package-free store. Opened in London in 2010 and was a internet sensation the moment it opened (ok maybe only among us zero-wasters). The only downside – it was all the way over in England.
