*Avoid disposable products when a more durable version can be used over and over. *Use secondhand purchases or borrowed items when possible. *Repair things. *Choose more local, less packaged versions of items. *Buy in bulk if you can reasonably use all of the items. *Consider if the packaging can be recycled or reused. *Use green wrapping ideas like reusable baskets, reusable fabrics or brown paper.
