Would you like a non-biodegradeable styrofoam container to take your food home in... no thanks, I've got my own

So I don't know how many of you like to go out to dinner, but what happens when you don't finish your meal? Do you just chuck it? Not if you don't like to waste! So what are the alternatives. Most of the time the waitress/waiter will ask if you want your food wrapped which usually means a giant styrofoam container that will sit in a landfill until the end of time! So here's where some planning ahead comes into play. We all have Tupperware, or some other form of plastic reusable containers at home, so why not just stash a few in your glove compartment?? I like to use the ones that Chinese food comes in. It's such a great feeling when you know that you just made such a simple, yet important environmentally conscious decision.  That's what I want this blog to be all about. Simple changes that we can all make. I follow a few blogs about people giving up plastic all together, which I think is totally awesome. I however do not have the time to figure out where/how to get/make everything I need that currently comes in plastic. For me it's just about making better choices when ones are available. Canvas bags at the grocery store, or no bag at all when I'm buying one item and I have 2 hands!! Bringing my own container for leftovers and using my Lifefactory GLASS water bottle that I LOVE!!!! Check them out Lifefactory.com. I would gladly welcome any suggestions that anyone else has, and I definitely have more of my own, but I am just trying to write a blog here, not a novel! Keep it Green!!!
