Pictured: three glass bottles in a row. On the left, it’s a full bottle of soy sauce. In the middle, it’s an empty bottle with the label removed. On the right, it’s another empty bottle with a rooted pothos cutting in it.
My workplace provides snacks and some condiments for folks. When the soy sauce runs out, I do my best to snag the bottle. It looks like it ought to have a potion in it. A plant is the next best thing!
Being “zero waste” means that we adopt steps towards reducing personal waste and minimizing our environmental impact.
Our community places a major focus on the 5 R’s: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. We practice this by reducing consumption, choosing reusable goods, recycling, composting, and helping each other improve.
We also recognize excess CO₂, other GHG emissions, and general resource usage as waste.
How do you get the rootball out if you want to replant?
You probably don’t let it go so long that it becomes a ball.
It might look a bit tight, but it comes out without a fight at this point. I should probably get it planted soon!
