Throwing a Green Picnic

Picnic season is in full swing, and there are many ways to green your summer get-together. Here are just a few:

1. Bring empty cans and paper home to recycle.

2. Skip styrofoam plates and eat off of biodegrable dishes with biodegradable utensils. These can be found at organic food stores, and grocery stores in the disposable dinnerware section. This photo is from World Centric:

3. Bring water in stainless steel water bottles.

4. Bring dishes from home and bring them home to wash. My favourite are these tin plates & cups sold at Viva Terra:
Happy Picnic Season!
