Do I NEED to Use that Disposable…

Jack Reichert
By Jack Reichert

tooth brushAs creatures of habit we tend to get into bad ones… Habits that is.

Here’s an eco-suggestion:

Try to re-evaluate what disposable products you REALLY need to use. For instance. Do you go out for picnics? Can you buy a set of cheap reusable plastic plates and cups instead of disposables?

How about the cup you use when you brush your teeth? Is IT disposable? Can you use a glass instead?

You’ll be surprised how many way you can improve your lifestyle when you take the opportunity to take a conscience look at it.

As far back as he can remember Jack Reichert has been interested in the environment. In the second grade, he rallied all of his classmates to donate one recess a week to cleaning up litter from the schoolyard. That was the same year that a city councilman asked him to help with his campaign because of the letter Jack had written asking him to clean up Boston Harbor. Ever since Jack has followed the development of the international green conscience with anticipation and hope that one day we will treat Mother Earth with the respect she deserves and not turn her into another Giving Tree.
