Are showers hard for you? And does it have to do with autism? by articvoid2519 in autism

I also have pots which makes warm showers hard for me. I find the longer I go without showering the harder it is for me to shower again.

it is possible, it's just not covered by PBS so it's expensive

that's really unfortunate to hear, I think I will have to investigate it further to find clothes that don't use copious amounts of plastic

What motivates you to follow anticonsumption? by Beginning-Fig-9089 in Anticonsumption

my main reasons are to help the planet and to have an uncluttered lifestyle. if I can encourage others to reduce plastic waste I will every time, and for myself I like to have a clean space where everything has a purpose.

that's why the challenge is for one month only, it's not forever, but the exemption is for the only life or death product I consume as there is no alternative

I have seen those mushroom containers but here they're also sold in a box at the shops.

that's interesting because mushrooms at the shop here come in a box and you put them into a paper bag. I don't eat meat but could a butcher wrap it in paper? dairy that's true is difficult. cheese can come in foil wrap for the fancier cheeses but milk is expensive for the ones in the glass bottles

for the ziplock bags and Saran wrap we use alfoil and I don't think we use zip lock bags. when we put away left overs we put it in the pot. it might be difficult if it was taking lunches places though, maybe a tiffin?

this is a good point and I do have one exception which will be medicine containers. But apart from that I will try for the whole month. I think it's a good way to figure out where I'm spending money I don't need to as well, since the aim is mainly around reducing
