Eco Tip: Reusable Dishes at Work

Posted on 6:00 AM by Unknown

Bring real dishes to work

Keep a whole set of dishes for yourself (bowl, plate, mug, silverware) at your office desk, including a dish towel so you can wash and dry your dishes after lunch. You'll no longer need to use disposable plastic plates and forks from your office kitchen that will just get trashed and pile up in landfills. I bring my lunch most days in tupperware (usually leftovers from dinner), and transfer it to a bowl for microwaving and eating because I don't like the idea of plastic chemicals leaching into my food. I actually brought my spoon home and keep forgetting to bring it back to work so I've been guilty of using plastic spoons a few times. Bad girl! Must remember!
