Zerowasting: Plastics - Part 1: Quick Tips
Zero Waste Money
05/31/19 • 13 min
TLDL?: In this episode I share how I’m saving money while reducing my use of plastics.
Show Notes
To save some more money, you have to sacrifice a little bit of convenience in the beginning but it’s entirely worth it if you have more money at the end of the month; if you’re tracking your savings already, you’ll believe me. Included are 10 tips to help you reduce your consumption of plastic and save money.
1. Bring my own reusable bag.
2. Deliberately not buying new things I don't usually buy that come in plastic.
3. Stopped buying frozen meat wrapped in plastic from the supermarket.
4. Began buying fresh meat not wrapped in plastic from the local market.
5. I buy yogurt in larger containers. From 500g to 1kg tubs.
6. I am currently reusing the 1kg tubs as plant pots so they are not being thrown away.
7. Buy cheese from the market in my own container.
8. Buy in bulk where possible, and eat-in instead of getting takeaway (but if you want take away, bring a container).
9. Carry a small container for ice-cream for those crucial, and spontaneous ice-cream purchases.
10. Try to visit your local zerowaste store for more inspiration.

Expert Discussion: Sustainable Fashion
Zero Waste Money
10/03/19 • 87 min
During the discussion, the speakers uncovered the behind the scene of fashion industry. From producing for 4 seasons to 52 seasons (once/week) in a year. Who are the catalyst who came up with this? What is the cost of it? Original Video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2duob851hI
Can fast fashion be green?
Fast fashion could be green and sustainable with the environment, economically and socially to support jobs and industries. The big brands, which have the resources, shall make a change.
Who made my clothes?
Human rights are a pressing issue in fashion industry. Agnes, from fashion industry, revealed that she was tremendously shocked in a business trip to a factory in Bangladesh. The factory was owned by an army general and protected by armed guard. Actually, it turns out that a large part of factories in developing countries are run by the army who can exert tight control of their workforce. While visiting, Agnes saw no light into the working women's eyes, they were desperate and had no choice than to comply. The workers, even though working extensive hours, received a meagre salary. What industry and consumers can activate to lower the impact toward the environment?
Industry – Keep inventory level low Go for good quality
Limit the product variety. During the design process, samples are developed in full color range but only a few colors are chosen in the end. Virtual reality design is a promising approach towards that Stop bringing new materials. Instead, let's use what we have now and keep it circular Bring new solutions to the market : compostable clothing is a very interesting concept to explore Consumers – Spread awareness - the general public is not aware of the problem Shop second hand Clothes Rental Research and out reach the companies to ask questions Organic cotton is inspected loosely.
Instead, you may want to opt for natural fibre Buy what you need/ not what you want Keep in mind the impact of switching for other materials.
For example: Stop buying either real fur or faux fur. Faux fur, even though kinder, is made from polyester which has its own challenges.
Books/ movies/ podcasts recommended by speakers: The True Cost by Agnes Cristina recommended Cradle to Cradle & Dress [with] Sense River Blue & Wardrobe Crisis by Tanja Resources: The Pulse – an annual report that addresses the industry’s environmental and social performance. Good On You – an app that gives you the power to check brand ratings while you shop, discover ethical and sustainable fashion labels from around Common objective – an intelligent business network for the fashion industry
Some questions included:
1. Are there compostable sustainable brands/ products? Future tech lab – they support initiatives that help new technologies and sustainable innovations connect, collaborate, and create. Pangaia – they innovated lower down Jacket / Botanical dyes Patagonia – they held ethical and environmental issues close to its core. 2. Where are the second hand shops in Hong Kong?
