Zero-Waste Johnsons |
| Not long ago, Sunset Magazine did a feature on a family in California who has zero-waste for the weekly trash pick-ups. The Johnsons follow some set practices to keep waste out of their home and simplicity in it. For instance, they shop the bulk bins with reusable containers, only have books from the library and only allow new toys in their home that will fit into 4 set bins. To follow their journey, click here. |
What can you incorporate in your home to be more like the Johnsons?
- Limit the number of toys you purchase and donate old toys
- Buy from the bulk bins and bring your own reusable containers
- Create an indoor garden

Car-less in Seattle |
| After their son wrecked their only car, this family of 5 decided to experiment with living car-less. For one full year, the family managed to live their life near Seattle, WA without owning a car. The times they did use transportation it was in the form of carpools, flexcars or a few borrowed cars for an average of 7 miles a day. Check out their story here. |
