Comments on: Year 2, Week 9 Results: 2.5 oz of plastic waste. http://myplasticfreelife.com/2008/08/year-2-week-9-results-25-oz-of-plastic/ Think we can't live without plastic? Think again. In 2007 I committed to stop buying any new plastic & I've almost succeeded! Won't you join me? Let's see what plastic-free looks like in 2012... for the health of our bodies, our oceans, our planet. ~Beth Terry Fri, 24 May 2013 17:23:35 +0000 hourly 1 By: Debbie http://myplasticfreelife.com/2008/08/year-2-week-9-results-25-oz-of-plastic/comment-page-1/#comment-3424 Debbie Tue, 09 Sep 2008 22:35:00 +0000 http://fakeplasticfish.com/2008/08/year-2-week-9-results-2-5-oz-of-plastic-waste/#comment-3424 I was shopping in my regular grocery store the other day (HyVee in Iowa) and saw World’s Best litter in a cardboard box. It did have a plastic carrying handle. I didn’t buy it but may next time I need some to see what all is inside.

Truly hot. As in, if I wasn’t married to Michael…

I’m not plastic free, and probably won’t be, but I’m definitely cutting back since reading your blog and Life Less Plastic. Have you tried Feline Pine cat litter? I’m pretty sure it’s offered in a box as well as a plastic bag. I like it better than the World’s Best, because my cat eats the World’s Best, which grosses me out, plus I think it conceals odor better than World’s Best, which smells like food to me. Which also grosses me out, LOL.

You are MEAN to mock Miss Kitty’s hobbling around. I feel for er since I spent most of today hobbling around Manhattan in a similar fashion (well on 2 legs and sans collar)–Seems I seriously pulled a muscle in my back during kickboxing Friday. Thank goodness for Vicodin! And thank goodness I didn’t hear any of the meanies calling me names. LOL Glad to know she’s healing up ok.

(which I used for nearly two years) But I just couldn’t do it anymore. Basically the same complaints you’ve had about it.

But, as soon as I got home w/ said bag of World’s Best Cat littler, I sent a similar email to the company. I haven’t heard back yet, but will let you know if/when I do!

The rest is just us– and it is mostly us in the West–driving, flying, buying, consuming, and discarding more in a month than our grandparents did in a year.”

Newspapers in the 50′s came without plastic wrapping from newsboys on bicycles, not adults in cars. Today both my newspapers came wrapped and the two were together in yet another plastic bag. A Rx arrived in a huge plastic bag (big enough for 50 Rx bottles, not the one I got). The stuff is so cheap and easy to customize, it almost begs to be wasted and it is.
