Introduction: What is Zero-Waste Living?
Zero-waste living is all about minimizing waste by reusing, recycling, and reducing what we consume. While it might sound challenging, it’s entirely achievable—even in Nigeria.
Step 1: Start Small
- Use Reusables: Swap plastic bags for cloth ones and disposable bottles for refillable ones.
- DIY Cleaning Products: Make your own cleaners with natural ingredients like vinegar and baking soda.
