Zero Waste: Personal Care

Did you know that every plastic toothbrush created since their invention in the 1930s still exists? They account for some of the billions of single-use plastic items thrown away every year worldwide. They end up in landfills, in the oceans, and on beaches and contribute to the pollution of our planet.

Using zero-waste personal care items—such as toothbrushes with biodegradable handles—is a small change that can have a big impact on our environment. The Mercantile carries reusable personal care products like these at our Zero Waste Bar.

Zero Waste: Household Cleaners

Simply swapping out your disposable household cleaning products for zero-waste, reusable products is a great way to make a big, positive change for the environment. For example, replacing your non-biodegradable paper towels and sponges with biodegradable alternatives adds up fast. The Mercantile carries household cleaning products like these at our Zero Waste Bar.

Zero Waste: Food and Drink

Did you know that it takes eight gallons of water to make just one paper plate? You can help the environment by changing your eating and drinking habits to include zero-waste utensil sets, straws, bowls, and bags.

Start limiting the amount of waste you produce by switching from plastic bags to reusable shopping bags, or by wrapping leftovers in Meli wraps instead of plastic wrap. We carry a variety of food and drink products like these at our Zero Waste Bar.
