Plastic Free Please

Lately, I've become really interested in the idea of living plastic-free. There are many blogs on people who have taken up the challenge of reducing their plastic consumption to almost nothing. Everywhere you look there are plastic products.

It came to my attention through a number of these plastic-free blogs that dog food bags often come with a plastic liner. Thus making the bags non-recyclable. Some bloggers suggested turning to home-made food for their pets. This is a nice idea, but obviously not convenient for everyone.

There are a few companies that provide dog food in environmentally friendly packaging. But, I think this is an area where companies need to get creative. Plastic-free will become a more popular lifestyle as concerns about health and the environment become even more prominent. And that concern will apply to our pets' health too.
