★ We shuld chse prducts that have glass, paper r ther packaging that can be reused r recycled. We shuld als try t buy prducts that have less packaging r n packaging at all. The greenest thing we can d is nt t buy unnecessary prducts. We shuld nly buy things we really need, like fd and clthes. If we dn't need smething, we shuld leave it in the shp.
