In the mornings I usually use a plastic hair brush. this is not good for the environment because plastic is not biodegradable

As a low-waste alternative, I could buy a bamboo brush.

Along with the plastic hair brush, I also use a plastic toothbrush.

As a low-waste alternative, you could also use a bamboo toothbrush. This is good because bamboo is biodegradable and is made from natural resources.

During school, I use a notebook with a plastic cover.

as an alternative, I could use a notebook made of recycled paper. this is a good alternative because you're not wasting products.

During school, I have to carry around a backpack all day, the one I use is not sustainable.

as an alternative, instead of using the one I have I can buy one from a company that is sustainable, ethical and eco friendly.

something that i eat a lot is mac and cheese, the mac and cheese that i eat usually comes in a plastic microwavable version.

as and alternative i could buy the cardboard box of mac and cheese because cardboard is better for the environment compared to plastic.

something that I eat a lot is Doritos I eat them almost every day, and the Doritos usually come in small plastic bags that are in a big box.

as an alternative, I could buy in bulk so it's not as much plastic being produced and I can but them in reusable plastic bags.

usually every time I have free time I always go onto my phone

nstead of doing that i can do something that is better for the environment like picking up trash or up cycling for fun.

when i am on a break most of the time I go out with my friends and I buy clothes

Insead of buying new clothes all the time I should invest in good basic clothes so I wont have to keep buying new ones this can make my waste lower
