Pack your lunch in reuseable containers
Packing your lunch with a reuseable lunch box, sack or container reduces the use of paper bags, which are thrown away after each use. Look for ones made from recycled materials, or natural products. Don't forget about the sandwich, chips and snacks. Buy in bulk, and place the items in tupperware or other resuseable containers. Avoid purchasing snack packs and other products that are individually packaged for your convenience, but that greatly increase the total amount of packaging.
