ESSAY “Zero Waste”.

Zero Waste.

Zero Waste is a philosophy and movement that seeks to minimize waste generation and

maximize recycling and reuse of resources. The main idea is to reduce the amount of

waste that is sent to landfill or incinerated through more conscious consumption, reuse

and disposal. My family and I unfortunately do not follow the Zero Wate rules. and

throws out too much waste. But I think we could reduce the amount of waste if we

followed these 3 rules.

1 - Reduction of purchases. Sometimes it happens that in the store we buy things that

we do not need, after which they are not used and are simply thrown away. By reducing

purchases, we not only reduce waste, we reduce money at the same time.

2 - Plan diet. You need to plan your diet in advance. To know what to buy in the store,

and to buy what you need.

3 – Freeze food. You need to use the freezer more often. Thanks to the freezer, you

can freeze food and eat it after a while. Thanks to this, you cannot throw out the food

and leave it for another time.

Freegan - is a lifestyle based on the denial of traditional principles of consumerism and

minimization of consumed resources. Simply put, freegans deliberately refuse any

purchases, including groceries.

I would never have become a freegan. For me, freegans are no different from

homeless. I believe that this will not affect the emissions of food waste in any way. In

my opinion, eating waste does not affect emissions in any way.
