3 weeks of garbage, plus a few cans, bottles and boxes

Doing all I can to cut back my garbage and buying items either from local butcher, or in bulk to cut back the amount of garbage I create.

It is really hard in France since many items are portion packed and double or triple packed.

This is why I have adapted my purchasing and eating habit to reflect what I can buy with minimum garbage. Specially plastic.

It is the first time I am using a plastic bag for garbage, but it was mainly because it has a lot of chicken skin and stuff that didn't work in my papaer bags I usually use.

The second picture is a 2L milk bottle with all the plastic bags and other items I push into it. right now it's 380g and by the time I'm done with it, it will be about 450 to 500g.

Most of organic waste goes into the compost on the back balcony!
