The hottest of the humid dog days of summer, I need the cooling and drying of the Peppermint Pure-Castile Liquid Soap. Through the relative “moisturizingness” of the various soaps. To the changes in temperature and humidity throughout the year, I progress Pattern to my preferences, and realized there’s a rationale. In the summer you’ll see Citrus and Peppermint Castile Liquid Soap, followed in the fall by the Almond Liquid Castile and the Rose Castile Bar Soap, the Lemongrass Lime Organic Sugar Soap and Organic Shaving Soap in the winter, and back to the Liquid Almond and Citrus in the spring.ĭidn’t start this cycle intentionally, but over the years, I’ve noticed the Bonner’s and other products (some even have vinegar) so you can fill your own bottles.You know me well, you would be able to tell what season of the year it is by If you have a zero waste store near you, many carry the gallon containers of Dr. The gallon will last us several months, while the 16oz bottle may only last a few weeks depending on the time of year (I use it more in the summer as a weed killer). That’s when buying in bulk is beneficial.

Glass is the best choice in terms of waste, but not for our budget or for purposes of reducing our consumption of materials. I could buy the smaller glass bottle, but it’s more expensive and I have to buy it more often. For example, we buy the gallon jugs of vinegar. Sometimes living low waste (I won’t ever be zero waste) means making the better choice. I always try to repurpose my plastic bottles in some way or find someone else who can, but if I can’t at least I know by using it I reduced my waste by making my own cleaners. I buy the 32 oz bottle and it lasts forever. The liquid can be used for a lot of things.

But shit, isn't that better than shipping probably millions of pounds of water all over the world just because the powers that be assume we're all too stupid to be able to handle diluting a concentrated soap or shampoo or whatever?Īnd I know, I know this is absolutely awful to say, and I'm just spit balling here, but if people are really too dumb to handle diluting, then are they also the same people who are digging their heels in against switching to green alternatives that we DESPERATELY NEED? Also the soaps and detergents and cleaners would still be bad for the environment. People could get hurt if they don't know it needs to be diluted (but there could be a huge warning slapped on the packaging + the stores that sell these products could have people sign something at the cash register acknowledging that the product has changed to a concentrate).

I mean obviously there are some concerns with doing that. why tf can't all the existing household goods brands just start shipping concentrated versions of their products like tomorrow?

We also recognize excess CO₂, other GHG emissions, and general resource usage as waste. We practice this by reducing consumption, choosing reusable goods, recycling, composting, and helping each other improve. Our community places a major focus on the 5 R's: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. Being 'zero waste' means that we adopt steps towards reducing personal waste and minimizing our environmental impact.
