I live with my fiance. It me, her and 4 cats. We live in a relatively small apartment, nothing fancy.
But dear lord how is it possible that two people have so many garbage bags to throw out? I could be exaggerating a bit as I’m a bit overworked so cleaning becomes more tiresome, but seriously - from an environmental to mental health to less chores perspective, help me: what are some tricks you use to reduce garbage?
It’s a shame that he torpedo’d himself writing that, because at least the first three sentences of his comment were useful. Packaged prepared foods and cheap non-durable junk are probably the biggest categories of household waste other than uneaten food.
I get it, my cats are my biggest source of garbage/waste in my own household, and I wouldn’t give 'em up for anything. But when facing a problem, sometimes you have to weigh options you’d rather not consider.
